The psychology of why some people never post on social media

I’ve been reading a lot about online behavior lately and something that always fascinates me is the group of people who never post anything on social media. They scroll, observe, maybe interact here and there—but never share their own life.

It’s easy to label it as introversion or shyness, but there’s actually deeper psychology behind it. Things like self-restraint, emotional independence, and what Carl Jung called the “persona”, the mask we wear for the world.

I put together a short video exploring this idea, why some people choose silence in a world obsessed with visibility. Would’ve written everything here, but it’s a long topic and I didn’t wanna flood the sub. If anyone’s curious, here it is https://youtu.be/pZnHQ4sImrE?si=LrfrZSA6xy2TKERZ
