As a 36 year old, I still don't understand what people find so compelling or addicting about social media.
OK you can argue that HN is social media, and so I understand the reason why I like to participate in this site.
However, I am just a username and comments. I don't understand the (bigger?) social media where you post all the details and photos of your life online like facebook, instagram, and twitter, etc.
I never seemed to have a problem keeping in touch with family, friends and making new friends with my hobbies by just using in person meeting, phone calls, and basic text messaging services.
