That makes sense. Do you see the general public making a similar shift that most people on SM besides some of my friends are “not real” people?
I slightly disagree with the parties, school part. Most people with “great bodies” are most likely the ones with revealing clothes at these places. There are lots of “not real” people there (they are not at a celebrity level but they make sure they are visible). Maybe your experience differs?
> I like the "media" part though. I like to follow photographers, use to follow some type of hobby, but not to see people's life.
> SM makes me feel that everybody except me has an ideal life and I know that's not true.
I’m split between both. I follow some people for the media part; And others for their wholesome content which usually includes part of their lives.
The sad part is that these wholesome people sometimes turn into “not real” people.
When I started a fitness account, I quickly realized the engagement from people were taking me into being a fake person. Thankfully, I closed that a while ago. But my takeaway from this experience, is that the problem is with people and not SM? (But what do I know :) )
