6.b2 It's Embarrassing to Post on Social Media

Maybe one of the reasons for why 5.a1 Posting ennui is the new normal can be found in the fact that a lot of people (myself included) feel a sort of quiet shame in sharing their lives on the social internet.

3. Millennials are weird and they're becoming more of an outlier.^[1] I remember having a conversation with #folks/Michelle_Zimmerman about that when her and #folks/Emmet_Moberly-LaChance were down here last. We both resonated with the idea that somehow we feel it's a little cringe to share stuff the way wee used to, and the way that social media companies expect us to.

I'm willing to bet that in more than a few ways media companies are working on some outdated information about how and why people use the social internet.
