Yes, what’s with so many people obsessing over social media?

Are some people just really worried about what somebody else says about them somewhere on social media, or elsewhere online?

Yes, good advice to just tune it out.

You do realize that FR is social media, too. Right?

For sure participants should have thick(er) skins and know when to let things go and take a break. I think much of the sensitivity people may have to social media (or private forums sharing common interests) comes from the possibility of being doxxed or exposed for whatever reason. Many also seek out like-minded online groups so they have a place to share their frustrations, opinions, and triumphs with what is considered a friendly and even receptive audience. When met with seeming indifference or even perceived hostility, it can be very dismaying for some. IMHO.
