I enjoy the look of having a lot of likes. It makes my profile look more appreciated. I dont want a lot of followers and I block some people who follow me. I like 50+ likes its enough for me.
I joined a engagement group on facebook. Everyone like each others post and if someone dont return likes they get banned. Very strict group so it works. I started liking a lot of peoples posts on instagram as well. Random people with very little engagement on their posts so they will bother to return the likes and feel greatful. I found bots too that give you likes for free between 10 and 50 likes a day. Its enough for me. If more likes you have to buy them but I dont wanna. I think a lot of people buy though. Some people have 100+ likes in one minute when you scroll recently posted photos under a specific hashtag and that is not possible. Maybe possible if you are very famous but not for normal unknown person... I think engagement just look nice. Its for aesthetic.

    I personally can't relate, but if it's purely for aesthetic as you say and not tied to your self worth in any way, I guess there's nothing inherently wrong with that. However, you say it makes your profile look more "appreciated", which makes me think it also has a lot to do with how others perceive you and your popularity, which I think can be a slippery slope toward letting the likes define you and your value.

    My personal opinion is that social media likes aren't important and that people often use them to seek validation, which can be unhealthy, and what you're describing with the Facebook groups, bots, etc. seems like an awful lot of time and effort (and possibly money in the case of bots) spent on something that's honestly pretty frivolous. Plus, what is the point of the likes if they're not genuine, and some don't even come from real people? I'm not trying to criticize your decisions and what you like, but just sharing my perspective. Honestly, I don't think what you're doing is necessarily abnormal since many people on social media seem to do it, but IMHO, there are better ways to spend your time, effort, and money that will reap much greater rewards.

    All in all, I would say to just be careful about assigning too much value and meaning to social media likes, and keep in mind that they don't really mean anything in the long run, and that other people's approval of you is not what is most important (and will never replace your own). Everyone wants to feel acknowledged, valued, and appreciated, and that is very normal, but I think there are a lot of people seeking these things in a very unhealthy way on social media these days.
