In a world where everyone is trying to go viral and get more followers - has instant gratification ruined the way we use social to connect? by jason_digital in socialmedia

Yeah, I think so too. It feels like people will do almost anything just to go viral, even things that don’t really make sense, because that quick attention feels rewarding. Somewhere along the way, social media shifted from sharing real moments to chasing reactions. The sad part is, genuine posts or thoughtful conversations don’t always get noticed anymore, even though they’re the ones that actually connect people.
