I've been telling people this. I went through the exercise of unfollowing everyone on Instagram that wasn't a real person that I actively interacted with in the past year. Lo and behold, turns out none of the 100+ people that remained EVER posts anything, except for stories. Why do we have this entire 'social' platform if only 10% of the screen (the tiny 'stories' bar) is dedicated to actual social interactions?

Everyone I know can't make discussion with me for five minutes before pulling out their phones. We need to fix this.

Social media wasn't social in 2010 either.

Not that the ‘social’ part was ever very good in the first place, but they are right, it’s not social anymore.
