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 "addiction" 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's not hard), but as far as I can tell she's fairly impervious to the whole ratings game. For her, it really is just a communication mechanism. I'm not 100% sure about this, but fairly sure.<p>Maybe we'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.
