Digital community

An interactive network created through digital interaction between people online through social media platforms, forums and applications. In this community, social identity is formed, interpersonal communication and information exchange take place exclusively in digital format. This type of community can have a significant psychological impact on a person. While it provides social interaction that promotes connections with others, it can also lead to feelings of isolation or social anxiety due to the inability to interact in person. People in the digital community may experience mental health issues, such as feeling constantly appreciated, and self-esteem may be disrupted by social comparisons happening online.
