I think you can try to be on the Internet while avoiding Influencers, and/or the places where they put up camp. I still happily don't use TikTok, and stay away from Instagram/LinkedIn/Facebook as much as possible.
There are small social spaces, like this one. Internet doesn't have to mean "following Influencers".
Thanks for this. I know I spend too much time online—and more often than not, I am discouraged by what is fed to us by folks just like us. I have minimized my time over time. Some days I wish we never had the internet. Then I google some fact I “desperately” need to know and realize I’m no different than the masses!!
