Do you advocate for constantly sharing our daily lives on social media?

---

I remember when social media first started, people used to just chat with friends and family. Now, it seems essential to share every moment. Had breakfast? Post a picture. Went shopping? A million pictures. Travelled somewhere? Non-stop Instagram stories! But in my opinion, oversharing isn't right.

Sure, I don't mind when people share their joys. Someone got married, bought a new car, went on a trip - what's wrong in sharing that? But sometimes, oversharing becomes a problem. It's not necessary to update every hour, every minute. Privacy matters too. Not everything should be shared with the world. Some things about you and your family should remain private, or it could lead to problems. Besides, not everyone needs to know everything about our lives all the time. Just share enough so friends know what's going on with us. No need to go into too much detail.

Many people think if they don't share, others will assume their life is boring. That's a misconception. You don't need anyone else's permission to live your life your way. You don't have to share every moment of your life. Keep some privacy, take some time for yourself. Oversharing can increase stress.

Have you ever witnessed a situation where someone frequently shares their life on social media and it has had positive outcomes?

---

Most people I've seen who constantly post photos of everything - from food to shopping - don't experience any significant changes in their lives. Sure, they get some temporary attention and compliments. But then, it all goes back to normal. I've often heard claims that sharing their lives on social media has brought many benefits. But when I looked closely, I found these claims weren't entirely true.

Nowadays, it's not just about sharing photos. The trend of family vlogs has taken off in our country. These vloggers record everything from the moment they wake up to when they go to bed at night and then share it on YouTube. These vloggers might financially benefit, but at what cost? Selling their and their family's privacy. They even show their bedrooms in vlogs. They don't understand the concept of privacy. They only care about money. Some might think these vloggers have become famous with their family vlogs, but I believe it will harm them in the long run. May God guide them all.

Do you believe that all the content showcased on social media is authentic?

---

Is all content on social media authentic? I've said it before and I'll say it again: not everything we see on social media is true. Many things are fabricated to make someone's life look perfect and flawless. But in reality, it's not like that. When social media started, people shared genuine joys like wedding photos or travel memories. But now, it's turned into a spectacle! Daily new makeup looks, new clothes, new travel pictures. It seems like everyone's life is a fashion show!

There's so much edited stuff that real life is hardly visible. Just Bollywood-style heroes and heroines, fake smiles, photos taken with extensive makeup. There's not much reality in most people's posts. Everything has to look "picture perfect," whether it's food or a home scene. It's not reality, just an illusion of an ideal life. So, the thing is, you can't trust most of the content on social media. There's only a little bit of reality. The rest is just for show, in my opinion.

Do you feel secure providing your information on Steemit? What are your thoughts about Steemit?

---

Whether it's Steemit or any other social media platform, never share things that are personal on the internet. Things that breach your privacy should never be shared on social media platforms for the sake of money, as the consequences can be severe. Nowadays, with the advent of artificial intelligence, cybercrimes are increasing rapidly. If you want to avoid these, keep your private life private.

Sure, share your memories, event pictures, travel stories, or happy moments you want to tell people about. In this regard, Steemit is a good platform because it rewards you for good content. But personally, I don't support sharing every detail of your life from brushing your teeth in the morning to going to bed at night in the form of vlogs or diary games on social media just for money. The random diary game is somewhat okay, but sharing your daily life and then including things that are personal or private is not right in any way.
