why are there so many people who share everything they do on instagram?

[F A B]

I see it as an addiction, so I tend to criticize those kind of people.

I'm courious to know your opinion.

my guess is that it is that chance of getting a bit of internet famous.

This. Dissected out and distilled down, it's loneliness and existential fear.

Attention craving.

@F A B External Validation

maybe they're innovative and have a social life and love the filter!

and maybe not.

The social network of my dreams would be something without likes, comments, and views.

It would be a place where you post for the sake of posting, where you share for the sake of sharing, with nothing in return.

A place where you don't need external feedback 'cause you are not selling yourself. You are expressing yourself.

Either one of the two: validation or marketing.

Some people actually make money on Instagram so its not always just about getting approval from others.
