One million people saw my dumbest tweet
Just as there are some people who seem to be remarkably resistant to e.g. opiate addiction, I find myself wondering if there are people who are resistant to whatever mechanism drives the &quot;addiction&quot; to social media (particularly likes).<p>My wife does way more conventional social media than me (given that I never use FB or Insta, that&#x27;s not hard), but as far as I can tell she&#x27;s fairly impervious to the whole ratings game. For her, it really is just a communication mechanism. I&#x27;m not 100% sure about this, but fairly sure.<p>Maybe we&#x27;re just hearing about the majority (?) of humans that get helplessly trapped in this stuff, causing us to ignore the minority who can dip and out of it with ease.
