The purposes of social media vary, but activities are generally related to the human need for belonging and entertainment. Maintain friendships, make new friends, share adventures, hobbies, music, art, and gossip.

Social media, while free, typically extracts a payment by monitizing your loss of privacy. All you say and do online is “owned” by tech giants providing your free social media service.
