We're not on social media, ergo we don't exist.

I just asked myself this question this week. Did not post. I'm not really an oversharer, but I am definitely dialing back more as my kids get older.

I don't have any social media, so I gotta go with YES. If you don't enjoy being on it, why are you on it?

I love seeing food and cocktails pictures and videos but never post them. I cannot get enough. I follow many food IG accounts (and a lot of architecture too) but I prefer my local friends’ food pics so I know what dishes to check out in my area.

Was just thinking something similar.

Your world is cold and dark.
Your world is fake and manipulated.
So what? You'd rather we post pictures of puking kids, dog poop, work stations, us tired on the couch at the end of the day? We post the highlights. For us, for our far away family and friends. ANd for anyone else who wants to see it.
Your ability to understand that is really not my problem.

There have actually been studies about this. The "likes" people get for putting up a photo give the user a dopamine hit. So then they're more inclined to post again. It's a self reinforcing cycle.

Use What’s App to send pics to family......No need to post for the world to see. We don’t care about your kid anyhow.
Well, hopefully “the world” isn’t on your Facebook friend list. I enjoy seeing photos of my friends’ kids, dogs, travels, and accomplishments. If they post something that doesn’t interest me, I just keep scrolling.
Social media use is entirely optional. If you don’t care about someone’s life, don’t be friends with them on FB. Or unfollow them at least. It’s not hard.

Some of us have large familes. Much easier to post on Facebook. My family and friends do enjoy seeing pictures of my kids. We had a holiday a few days ago ( Eid) and my family was asking why I didn't post pictures of the kids. People like you sound miserable.

I am a ghost so anything I do with my kids didn't really happen. But I keep up the Instagram posts and no one knows I'm dead.

If someone has an opinion and doesn't post about it, do they really have an opinion?

Thank you! I like seeing pics of people’s kids, accomplishments, awesome dinners. I’m secure in my mediocre life and am able to feel happiness at my friends and acquaintances wins and lives.

Honestly no. I assume people who don’t post do nothing.
