What's the real reason you aren't on Social Media heavy?

[Music Fiend]

I should also say this thread isnt meant to offend or trigger anyone. I just honestly wanted to know why.

I rarely use social media myself. I have then but don't keep up with it often. Moreso just share stuff with my girl and a few friends.

Keep in mind that just because you are or aren't into something, that doesn't mean the other side is wrong

Not privacy from the feds, wiseass. We mean people we don’t give a crap about.

I hear that. But i mean isnt there a grey shade here thats not black and white?

You can choose to only share what u want, you don't have to be vain or a comedian or post anything about your actual life.

i just want to encourage brehs to get their piece of the media movement.

unless they suffer from anxiety/low self esteem or believe that you dont have anything interesting to share. There's a lot of ppl hiding behind "privacy" but in reality they just dont have any social proof/hobbies and thats ok too, understandable.

I don't really like people in my business like that plus I don't really have content nor the energy to post often.

If I was getting a bag to do it I'd be more active with it.

For myself, I have no genuine interest in anyone’s life outside of my own and the folks who I can actually contact on the phone.

I guess my question to you is why do you feel like social media = broadcasting your life?

Plenty of ppl never show their faces just their art, hobbies, or whatever.

I know of a dude who is a real estate agent. He only posts interior of homes for sale and before/after upgrades. Get inquiries via DM all the time about viewing the homes or how much a certain upgrade was. Sends em to his construction buddy and they kick him 5-10%.

This is a message board not social media. We share our thoughts on various things.

Still social media breh breh.

Just anonymous.

social media by definition: websites and applications that enable users to create and share content or participate in social networking

what is the real reason, void of all bitterness and reserse-hatred for the system (ex. "It's shallow, and vain, blah blah") I see a lot of ppl talk about all the reason social media "sucks".

Let's be really 100% here. Most of the nikkas here are here way too often to have a really exciting life. I'm not judging either; I just assume you're low-status in real life, especially if ur spending time critiquing everything negatively.

Are you afraid/anxious when using non-anon social media? Are you just embarrassed by how little status you have? Do you avoid it because you can't lie when your face is attatches to it?

Be real.

I guess my question for you is, what is the value on online status?

I have enough going on that I could pimp my family and talents for social media clout. But why? I have enough going on offline to not need that validation.

Plus there are different ways to enjoy social media. I use it to actually connect with people like friends I don't get to see often. And I follow various celebrities and musicians. I don't need to play the clout game to get value out of social media. Most people who play that game seem to be miserable.

I think the biggest trick in social media is that, somehow, it matters.

It doesn’t.

Being social in real life matters...
