💡 What Is Digital Culture?
Digital culture is more than memes and trends it’s the evolving set of behaviors, values, and shared language that emerge from life online. It’s how communities form, how we express identity, and how influence flows from device to reality.
- Online humor as a new language
- Content creation as self-expression
- Virtual spaces as real social homes
