What Defines This Aspect of the Self?
The Digital Self, especially on social media, represents how individuals construct, perform, and manage their identity in online spaces. It's curated through posts, captions, filters, comments, and interactions — often influenced by social norms, expectations, and algorithms.
In the age of constant connectivity, social media acts as a mirror and a stage, allowing people to express themselves while also seeking validation through likes, shares, and follows. The line between authentic self-expression and image management becomes increasingly blurred.
