Social speedster

A social speedster is someone who essentially 'speedruns' through their social media networks, which includes scrolling through their feed like a madman, liking posts with minimum forethought, reading all their PMs under a second, and clicking on one insta story after another without any pause in the middle.

Social speedsters are also highly known for sending a snap in a lightning quick succession. The time it takes to take their phone out of their pocket, enter snapchat, and snapping a pic is only a mere 3 seconds.

Nowadays, most youngsters and young adults are social speedsters. This inclination can have its drawbacks, as a social speedster may zoom through their PMs but not respond to them immediately, and eventually as more PMs build up they might forget about the ones they've already read.
Me: My friends are all social speedsters. You should see how blazing fast they plow their feeds and PMs. Every time I send a message and it gets read and they never reply back, I sometimes question my relationship with them, but then I remember "oh duh, they are social speedsters". Can't blame them entirely, as they are just trying to adapt to today's information-packed, attention-based media.

Social Media Overload

When someone has been viewing social media topics, or any one topic, on social media for so long, non-stop, that they can't handle anymore new information. If more information continues to be presented to them then, they may get visibly upset since they've reached the overload point. They get upset even faster if they don't have a particular interest in the topic(s).
There have been so many tumblr posts on that new Cartoon that came out recently, Johnny hit Social Media Overload.
