- 1Even a real photo doesn’t show what happened before it.
- 2A heart doesn’t say, “This is good.” It only says, “A thumb went by.”
- 3Counting finds what’s loud. Really looking finds what’s good.
- 4Mostly nothing, sometimes a heart — that exact mix keeps you checking again and again.
- 5Points show what other people like. Without points, you notice what you like.
- 6A filter only changes your photo — but then you compare your real face with it.
- 7Your real face is the only one that can smile back.
- 8Followers watch. Friends are there — even when there’s nothing to see.
- 9You can count likes. You can feel applause.
- 10Real applause: two hands pulling you up. You can’t count that.
