What your favorite social media app says about you
Social media has essentially become part of our everyday lives since the dawn of technology. It is now impossible for us to spend a day without indulging in online activities, no matter how busy we are. Our social media consumption summarizes our interests and even broadens them. Most of the time, it is through social media that we find new hobbies or interests that we share with other people. Which is quite literally the very essence of these online media platforms.
However, depending on our consumption, it may indicate different interests. We may not notice it but what we share and consume on social media tells a lot about us as an individual. Our overall social media presence and participation give out an impression that other people may have of us.
