Social media is on the decline. Instagram is all ads. No one's posting on BeReal. TikTok is for influencers. The new place for sharing: group chats.

It's not bad... it's actually healthy. I think that feeling that you must post on social media isn't really good for the head.

Go on social media when you feel like it, but it's best if the default is to not use social media.

Good point

Agreed, this experiment should be able to last by itself without feeling obligated to post something. If that's the case then it's failed.
