¡Hola, Papi!
I regret not thinking of you sooner, but I think you’re the man for this question.
How does a person deal with knowing that an online presence would likely increase their chances of success in their field but they don’t want to be known online? My career would undoubtedly benefit and I care a lot about my work, so I might have to suck it up, put myself out there, and face the horror of a public Instagram profile with hashtagged posts. Sharing art is hard enough without the mortifying ordeal of being online.
My anxiety is specifically about being on social media. I’m severely online. You and I both know it’s bad out there. How does anyone see an upside nowadays?
I also feel like a hypocrite. I consume and engage with public/semi-public content (what feels like every hour of every day), but I don’t add to it. Can you call that a “lurker mentality”? How do you participate in the world?
Signed,
Digital Debutante
