Indeed, I wished to caricature SNS. Today has been unlucky for me after a surprise houseguest broke my daily routines, and I wanted to agree with your analysis and have some fun.

Yeah, that seems fair enough. I do totally get where your caricature is coming from, though.

But yeah... I feel like sometimes I wind up in a weird middle ground. I still maintain the old thought patterns and workflows, but want updated stuff. Like, I still use forums and desktop computers rather than social media and smartphones, like everyone here. But I use modern versions of Windows and buy new computers too. So it's like that's the way I've lived, old style/approach, new foundations with better security, like I am determined to make something still supported or still produced work for me even if it's a bit of a pain.

So I wind up looking like a tech optimist and someone that still chases the future to a lot of people here, because I am so determined to stay on a supported platform and not just take the easier path... but I wind up looking retro or old-school to people outside because I suck at dealing with QR codes and look like a deer in the headlights whenever someone wants me to scan one, complain every time I have to use a touchscreen, and only have Facebook and LinkedIn, with no real interest in Instagram or Twitter. Which is oddly sort of like the situation Pale Moon is in, now that I think about it...
