Comment on What's the appeal of family life vlogs/ YT channels?

I feel the same way about all the generic instagram influencer accounts with hundreds of thousands of followers. Selfies, holiday pictures, photos of food/jewellery/clothing/accessories etc. You could basically merge all these accounts into one as the content is the same. I genuinely don’t understand why they got so many followers and what the reasoning is behind the decision to follow such accounts.

Don’t they just show a life that many people wish they could live? Those influencers are usually very good looking, drive nice cars, wear designer clothes and go on lavish holidays.
Seeing a normal/non-famous person have it makes it more believable that one day you’ll have that life as well.
Either that, or it’s just horniness meets para social relationship 🤷♂️
