This occurs when a user tries desperately to upload content to a social media site (photos, videos, status posts, etc.) but is unable to complete the process or "get it up" due to poor network connection or lack of good tech (eg. Apple).
Subsequent failed attempts to upload in rapid succession, especially over the course of a full day, will leave the user frustrated at their inferior technology and rife with feelings of inadequacy.
These negative feelings are further amplified if the content is "fresh" and has the capacity to generate a high degree of likes and shares. This leads to a loss of followers, and ultimately a deflated ego and sense of self for the user.

Digital Paperweight: A term used to describe a website or online platform that serves no functional purpose other than providing aesthetic appeal or informational content. Similar to a physical paperweight that merely occupies space without serving any practical function, a digital paperweight lacks interactive elements or features that engage users in meaningful actions or transactions. Visitors to a digital paperweight can only passively consume information, view images, or read textual content without the ability to schedule appointments, make purchases, access digital downloads, participate in discussions, or engage in other interactive activities commonly found on functional websites. Its primary function is to visually please the user without offering any actionable or transactional opportunities, making it akin to a decorative yet non-utilitarian object in the digital realm.
Although the website had a visually stunning design and captivating images, it was ultimately a digital paperweight since visitors couldn't do anything beyond reading the provided information. It lacked any interactive features or transactional capabilities, rendering it an aesthetically pleasing but functionally limited online presence.
The website was nothing more than a digital paperweight, offering beautiful visuals but no interactive features or practical functionalities for visitors.
