Venmo's feed is hardly social media at its most riveting. Yet it feels like a classic social network in part because the people on your friends list may not just be your nearest and dearest.
The simplicity of Venmo's feed, and the feeling of real connection, makes me nostalgic for the days when YouTubers filmed with grainy cameras, and Facebook posts were stunningly routine status updates.
When we look to express our vulnerability or the less glossy details of our life, it can feel uncomfortable to broadcast that to our followers-however few they may be.
The impulse to share and to be seen never really goes away. Instead, new avenues present themselves.
