有一种运动叫做删除社交媒体(19)_在我很小的时候

“My decision to log off has improved so many things from my productivity to my relationships to my worldview. I’ve learned that I don’t fit neatly into 140 or 280 characters or an “about me” section or even an entire website. And I don’t have to or ― at least today ― want to. No one online or off could ever possibly condense their worth their identity or their impact into gigabytes and pixels and code. And knowing that feels infinitely better than any number of favorites or likes or retweets ever could.”

Mary Elizabeth Williams是Salon的签约作家，也是 \"A Series of Catastrophes & Miracles\"的作者。 2019年1月20日她在Salon上发表了一篇文章\"Life after social media: What I discovered after deleting all of my accounts” 。文中，她写道：

\"It's all also overwhelming and exhausting and noisy at times. The low-key ritualized bragging. The daily outrages over small controversies. The spam. The bots. The trolls. Several years ago I radically purged my Facebook friend list boiling it down to a small pool of individuals I had sustained real-world relationships with. I started a tradition of giving up social media for Lent — a digital cleanse that usually helped me return to online presence with a clearer sense of purpose and perspective. And I removed the apps from my phone the better to assure I wasn't reflexively scrolling whenever a single moment of boredom presented itself.\"
