RE: How To Earn Money On Steemit Even If You're Mildly Insane

in #insanity • 8 years ago

@stellabelle, great article!

It seems that people try to make everyone think that their life is better than what it really is. All I want is to find authentic people who are being real about their joys and struggles!

For me this applies to life in and outside of Steemit!

    Maybe that's the exact reason why social networks like Facebook and Instagram are winning nowadays.

      FaceBook and Instagram do a great job of helping people showcase "make-believe" lives, and do very little to actually help people make "social" connections.

      Exactly! The formula looks like this: Post How Cool I am = Likes = Dopamine is Raised = I have self esteem!

      Because self esteem based on likes isn't worth the self esteem you'll get by actually knowing yourself .

        Agree. My point is that on FB people often share posts triggered by their willing to show off. I suspect Instagram as one of the main reasons for the diminishing popularity of FB.
