If you want to know how different social media used to be: There was a time you had to write down your idea, tear it out of your notebook, fold it, pass it to another person when the teacher wasn’t looking, then usually hope they *don’t* boost it to other people. Historians refer to this as the Anti-Boost Period.

Before that time, you had to be wealthy enough to learn how to read and write. Paper and ink cost as much as cellphones do today. The poor and to walk around and yell at each other- half the time they were drunk- most of the time cranky from poor dental hygiene.
Don't quote me on this because I'm not an overpriced published encyclopedia.
