I'm incorrectly extrapolating my experience with facebook and grafting it onto you. In my experience, it was just a flow of worthless information and people I was probably never going to see again in real life. If I was going to see them again, I could just catch up with them then. I should have put friends in quotes, but I didn't. I have friends, but I go see them. I may not interact with them for years at a time, but I find that preferable to having to deal with a constant flow of crafted snapshots that don't represent reality. It was just noise. I assume your relationship is a real relationship worth putting care and effort into, a worthy pursuit. I rarely found 'the feed' to be anything like that. At least on steemit I get to interact with new people and hear opinions from all over the world.

You may think I'm trolling you. When I read back what I wrote, that's probably how I would read it, but I think I'm trying to get to the core of what you're about. I find your input interesting. Don't take my comments to be too adversarial. I apologize if I offend you. I'm just a stupid monkey trying to learn about and navigate the world I was born into.
