Social media is used to boost status for those who lack status otherwise. Social media does not require real status, or wealth so that is why it's so popular
No one posts a sad photo on Facebook. A lot of those people are $100K in debt.

You take the NEET pledge and apply for neetbux.
After high school, i fell off the face of the earth. I held on to a hand full of cool people from school, 4 in which i see on regular occasions. i'm facebook friends with tons of high school friends, but i never post anything. rarely share anything. never say anything about my job, where i live. i keep it as obscure as possible without seeming inactive.
my plan is to make it and then flood my feed with all my cool shit and awesome places i will visit.
so when people actually do think "hey i wonder what user is up to?" by some very slight chance, they will look me up and be bombarded with jealousy and envy.
i understand where you are coming from but you're still acting form a place of insecurity and feelings of not being good enough. Your motivations for bettering yourself are flawed as they come from the perspective of wanting to get back at, one up, or "I'll show them". I feel a similar thing when I look at the range of people I've interacted with in life on social media and have dreamt about returning to a high-school reunion as the fringe badass who sets off down his own path and seems to be effortlessly successful and cool. only now am I starting to realize that that motivation will get you nowhere. It has to come from an internal motivator.
after highschool I spent a year living abroad, then went to college, had a few amazing and colorful relationships, got a degree in chemistry and philosophy, and then rode my bike solo across america the summer after I graduated. And here I am working a part-time retail job with minimal savings, owe my parents a bit of money and have a few k squirreled away in cryptp.
Yeah, I have dreams and ideas of the kind of life I want to live, the adventures I want to have and people I want to surround myself with but from most perspectives my life right now kinda sucks, isn't heading anywhere and is basically stuck in an on-hold loop.
The thing that will get me out of it and moving towards my idealized life is not going to be a desire to one-up my old classmates who don't even remember me, but to realize that that's not the goal that will bring satisfaction in life and realize that the opinion and approval of others does not matter.
I went through the same thing with gym motivation. It used to be a lot of anger, self-loathing and desire to one up and be better than others but that only lasts so long before it burns out. Now my motivation is more of a sense of responsibility to my future self and an understanding of the benefits of exercise and desire to be physically capable.
