Paradoxically, the tendency to equate quantitative popularity on social media with qualitative connection with an audience has become the rule rather than the exception to it.
People furiously over-share their pictures, videos, and writing to as many avenues as possible, hoping that The Algorithm will be a sort of passive matchmaking service.
They feel emotionally drained and over-worked, since sharing themselves has become a job in itself.
