I'm embarassed to say that I've been on the internet nearly everyday for more than half of my life and I am still so woefully out of touch.
I was chatting with a friend on FB messenger (ancient, we are) and suddenly my interface changed to a darker color. I didn't even know it was possible to change the theme from the other person's end! (I'm just inches away from boomerhood, i can feel it.)I'm mostly just a passive participant in the online space. Feels like I'm aimlessly wandering sometimes. Our PC broke since December and that only made it worse. I miss watching horror movies.
I've been spending a lot of time on Instagram instead. I learned more about Instagram in the last couple of months than in the last five years that I've had the app. And that's just as a viewer, not a poster.
I haven't figured out how to get IG notifications from select accounts though. I removed IG notifications just because it was bothersome to get notified for everything every time.
I've been relying on ESP to figure out whether my favorite IG account has posted a story.
So this account that barely posts anything, posted content and stories in close succession and then - silence. Dude, c'mon! Now I realize why those influencers schedule their postings and stuff, 'cause this does feel like a sugar crash and I'm having a withdrawal.
I know, I know. I know it's kinda weird and I'm not owed content. I just miss the distraction.
