I personally think it's a preference thing, I have relatives beyond 50 who stick to SMS only but on the other hand I have relatives beyond 60 who still use the likes of Facebook on a daily basis. People don't like change and that's alright, some would rather stick to the likes of SMS just due to the familiarity of it all.why is it that so many people after a certain age get filtered by it as a whole?
This is heavy personal opinion but it's usually pipeline that causes this, downloading the likes of Facebook to talk to grand-kids and relatives can easily lead to an addiction to the app as a whole once the older relative in question decides to veer off of the messaging portion of the app for just a minute, as the primary goal of these social media apps is to get people addicted and they've been very specifically engineered to do so through recommendations and third-party cookies constantly catering to your every need. Humans have a natural craving for needs and wants, but where as before we had to work to get them, now we get shown them all day everyday without much effort and that's something the human brain just isn't made for, and that's exactly why people become addicted, it's all down to natural instincts. If something is free, you're the product.if they didn't need it then why do they need it now?
Most cannot manage due to their brains not being able to get it's usual feed of dopamine, a feed that their non-social media interested counterparts lack. The same goes for any other addiction really, from Porn to smoking and everything in-between, it's all down to comfort-zones, the workings of the brain and the want for familiarity it seeks out. For some dropping an addiction is easy and for a personal example, it's a tad personal but for the sake of the argument I'll mention the fact that I gave up masturbation not long ago like it was nothing and to be frank l felt grand with no real issue dropping it, but despite this ease I felt, many others struggle with such issues daily due to the aforementioned reasons for addiction and that's something cooperations love to manipulate as advertisements feed those exact addictions and cravings for needs and wants, and that's exactly why Facebook and all these other kike-owned companies have made themselves billions with ease.ut the same goes for Zoomers, how could they ever live without something they've had?
Zoomers grew up with this without even realizing and that's exactly why they can't live without it.
