Anyone else cant stand people that post their entire life on social media?

I gave up social media in its entirety. The initial stages of covid followed by election and political garbage was too much. I feel free.

That’s Funny.

I don’t have social media, but I’ve heard of such people. Even worse are the men who do this shit. You’d think they’d have something constructive to do than look for attention on Facebook.

Closed my FB acct in 2007 for that very reason. I began to despise people that I had previously though were alright. Never had another SM account since, exc here for a while.

I doubt that. Anyone that has to monitor and catalog all that nonsense is probably bored to tears. Imagine your job is to monitor mundane postings from a little old lady that lives a quiet life in the Midwest. Or imagine having to monitor some comic book geek who talks endlessly about his latest collection or comicons he's gone to.

Anyone viewing my social media would be bored to tears - pics of my cat, vegetables I've grown in my gardens, food that I prepare, little trips my husband and I take - all boring AF for anyone other than my kids and a few friends.

I'm in a few homesteading groups, gardening groups, food preserving groups and recipe groups - as are some of my friends. We do have an interest in sharing domestic/lifestyle posts.

Social media is not for everyone. Especially if a person finds it annoying and antagonizing. My husband found it all annoying and trivial so he got off of it, best decision for him. He would complain about posts he read and get irritated with the way other people were living/sharing their lives. He's a lot happier after getting rid of it.

I agree. I have never done facebook or any of that.

About the food--some people are into cooking delicious, nutritious meals and the presentation of the meal.

If they are aspiring chefs, I can understand that.

I only use Instagram these days and really only use the story feature 95% of the time.. Probably post 1 story video or picture every week or two usually of my kids playing or of something neat which automatically permanently deletes after 24 hours and only appears to my friends. Easy way for family that isnt near by to keep up with each other

Posting for the sake of self aggrandizement is not the right motivation.

This is a free pro-tip: Delete all your social media accounts. If possible, prior to deletion of the account, delete everything you were joined and posted. All of it will be used against you in the coming Reset.

It is many things.

I usually see two types of people mostly:

1. The narcissistic attention-seekers wanting to brag or exercise the “look-at-me-and-mine” factor.

2. The lonely, emotionally-needy types who always seek validation from, well, anyone who’ll see or respond.


Anyone else on there is likely not using it much at all, or is on there for a specific hobby or interest, or monitoring crime activity etc., which is a reasonable/ valid use of the site (Facebook for example).

It's an ego thing! Look how wonderful my life is! Look at all I do. Most of the time these are sad people who have a low self worth. Many have a lot if friends that aren't friends, but they have few actual close friends that really know them.
They more they can post, the more important they are. Same with likes on their posts and pictures. The more they get the better it makes them feel about themselves. Sad really.
Mostly no one cares.

When I was on social nedia I didn't post much. I have always kept my business to myself. It's no one's business where I go, who I'm with and what I do unless I tell you.

The most cringeworthy are those that I know in real life, their profiles compared to their actual lives tell a lot about their insecurities.

Shallow people

Vain people

Pop culture induced mental illness

It's a newly named syndrome, I think.

Validation Seekers. Like on steroids.

Only exception are folks using social media to drive traffic to them for business purposes.

The thirst traps and weirdos who date them are the funniest.

I can’t stand those people, yea. But also I don’t have any social media accounts so I have no idea what they post. I know this is the modis operandi for social media sheep, but have not witnessed it.

I hatred it from day fucking one

It’s so desperate. And narcissist

To post shit no one cares about
It’s so lame

I will never date someone with an active Facebook account again. I feel so dumb. I should have looked and realized this guy was a douchebag when he has his last 3 relationships all over his wall.
He has like 10 women on standby which tells me he knows he is a loser and gonna get his ass dumped. Trust me when I say I am not offended they are all fat ugly and old hens. If a women is single he likes her picture. I posted my picture just to see what he would do, didn't even like it lmfao.
The only reason I am even on there is to see him play his childish games. I just want him to go and leave me alone and he won't.

Yes, because their constant posting of the minute details of their lives makes them so easy to dislike.

The irony when people realize that this site is no different than any other social media site.

And every different type of drink they order when they're out at a bar

FACEBOOK

"It's just like high school"

Troll harder qs

yeah, it is equal to standing on the street with your pants down!

People used to meet in person and tell ya bout their nice meal and what they were drinking on the weekend.

Butt now you dont have to wait until Monday when you see them at work, they tweeter twat u ass the news right away.

Which helps...cuz now, you telecommute 4 daze a weeek

I hate people who use it period

Look at me!!!!

THIS

Facebook is okay most of the time. I have pretty much culled out my friend list to where it's just close friends, relatives and people who share common interests with me. I go through my list and cull people out every 3-4 months and try to keep the number under 150.

I have found that if I'm sick of someone's posts but don't want to hurt their feelings by unfriending them I just unfollow them- they can see what I post but I don't have to look at their bullshit (mainly applies to relatives). If I don't want someone to see everything I post I put them on my restricted list- all they can see is what I post as "public" (which is only my profile pic and background photo). It saves a lot of hurt feelings.

If I get sick of someone's shit and don't care about their feelings I just block them, though I haven't done that for a long time since I keep my circle small and personal.

The tools exist to make Facebook what you prefer it to be, you just have to utilize the tools.
