The social network factor was a culture shock for me. You literally contact businesses and even government officials over Facebook/Facebook Messenger. Businesses don’t have their own websites, just Facebook profiles. If you’re looking for a job or an apartment, the best place to start is usually Facebook. I had to resuscitate my decades-long dead Facebook account to find my footing in Malta, and it never stopped feeling dystopian.
