Ok, but what if you are very busy and you don't have time for that.

When I was a kid, we simply didn't have dessert after meals. Ever. Everyone was skinny.

I don't even read anyone else's posts. I just post pictures of my amazing life. I use it like a diary. Or a time-series multimedia database.

None of this changes the fact that I want Likes on my vacation photos, kid photos, and pics of my food, all of which are of better quality than yours.

There is another way to look at this. In the current economy, anyone who wants to can get IT and programming skills and get a pretty good job. In fact, IT in general is a pathway to wealth, which is open to anyone, and leads to more wealth than many other career paths. You can be a 17 year old Javascript expert a get a $200k job without going to college. All the training materials you need to do this are online, for free. You need a $200 Chromebook, a Wifi connection, and some kind of ambition or drive.

To really get my respect he needs to kill off ads in the Windows start menu and the pervasive Cortana surveillance.
To really, REALLY get my respect: I would like to see Microsoft be a pure, best-practice software company. Do GREAT things independently of Windows. Make native Mac applications that are truly great. Make a better Mac application than Apple can. Make better iOS apps. Be a champion of Linux. and so on. Strive for greatness on every platform, embracing that platform's uniqueness.

Imagine how profitable Google (as in the division of Alphabet) would be if they eliminated all the distractions other than the cash cow ad business.
