This is how I think about social media in general. It’s a spectrum from mostly fake to all fake. Even the least fake profiles still only show the good parts of their life and unedited photos are still hand-picked from a bunch of other ones they don’t want people to see.
Hell even my own Pixelfed feed which is 100% landscape photography is all more or less fake. I take hundreds of photos and only publish one or two of the best ones and even those are heavily edited. It gives a totally false impression of how good of an photographer I really am.
They aren’t “real” people either way, even the human ones are just drones reading a script that someone paid them to read.
Are you telling me all the podcasters I listen to didn’t naturally have the same experience with HelloFresh?

Even with people knowing social media is fake or highly edited, It’s really doing a number on people’s mental health.
