Been thinking about the idea that humans can maintain a stable relationship of around 150 people on average, or the Dunbar number, also makes me think about social medias effect on our social limits. I wonder if we were meant to absorb so much information from others. In Bruce Almighty, Bruce hears all the prayers and pleas of all humanity all at once like God does and it is overwhelming.
I think social media is like that to a degree and causes detrimental effects: trading dopamine and receiving a plethora of information we were never evolved to personally handle. You can doomscroll and absorb more opinions, conflicts, drama, and information that your entire bloodline would ever be exposed to.
I quit X and instagram even a few weeks ago and just use NOSTR now. I look at primal and sometimes browse damus on my phone. I feel like it is enough and my brain feels different lately for the better.
It might seem weird but I think it is best to be alone in my own little world, with just enough connections to see what is going on briefly. I plan on going even deeper someday, barely checking in, but this is a good start.
