Don't blame anyone but the person who is performing these actions. She doesn't exactly have a gun to her head.
If/when her lifestyle is no longer sustainable, offer her a bit of help and send her on her way after she's dusted herself off.

>their jackass developers who think they're saving the world with their "innovation"
May want to target the psychologists, behavioural economists and similar who come up with the gamification to drive some of this narcissistic behaviour.
Not that those doing the implementation of it are guilt-free, of course.
Can't wait until society moves past this "look at me, look at me, LOOK AT ME!" phase. Or it won't, and I'll die a bitter old man from it.
I don't have sympathy for my own family member. The obsession with portraying yourself as someone your not and getting validation from people you don't even know is a cancer. I blame my parents but I also blame these platforms and their jackass developers who think they're saving the world with their "innovation". Again, I blame my parents on this mostly.
