Social Media Graduation

Social media graduation has several definitions. When someone has evolved past the need for social media. This is often due to factors such as financial stability within the majority of the population. Occasionally this happens towards the end of Rumspringa as a last chance to party before going offline permanently (or at the least, no longer using social media). Social media graduation also happens due to factors of age, and having outgrown social media in some form, even if graduate decides to continue to use other social media. When social media graduation happens, online & offline celebrations are common, often happening at the same time. Strictly offline celebrations are common as well. This sort of event can cause paradoxical feelings of intense joy, sadness, loss of friendships, and strengthening of existing ones. It can be as important to some people as a high school, college or university graduation, depending on their background & culture.

Synonymous terms include, but are not limited to: Social networking graduation, insert website and / or app here graduation, internet graduation, social media retirement. This is not that same as quitting social media out of frustration, or a social media break.
example 1: the young man's social media graduation party before returning to The Amish Community was a welcome one. All of his new friends had a chance to say proper goodbyes, and plans to visit him & his community were made.

Example 2: Having outgrown the app, and wanting an excuse to have fun, the young lady threw a TikTok graduation party complete with a shocking ceremony to keep her legendary status.

Example 3: Being too busy for Facebook, they graduated from social media. They exchanged phone numbers, and mentioned their frequent hangouts to friends. They had a few drinks to celebrate with coworkers on a lunch break.

Example 4: Due to factors of aging, but wanting to quit social media, we threw a social media graduation party for our grandmother instead. She was much happier this was, and loved ones were more understanding.
