Social media is getting closer to fast fashion. Every app is doomed on creation to live a short life. I'm happy with this, since in reality, its ultimately a tool for marketing and social media is just the side effect. Superficial way of connecting to the masses? use the latest Social media. The real way of staying in touch with people? giving them a call or an email if not meet in person. Nothing beats the personal touch. Super
This is all true, but the result of social media is that people feel like they’re getting social fulfillment despite, in most cases, getting anything of value. So people are irritable, exhausted, and feel no need for offline socialization.
We’ll eventually come up with ways to resist this, but it’ll be hard. We can’t, if we live in the expensive cities where the jobs are, return to the real physical world, because that place was bought by the rich when we weren’t looking and now they own it.
