As digital media is involving at an astounding speed, using social media has been taken for granted nowadays and creates pressure to non-users. Social media non-users might feel disconnected with the world around and get outdated. As digital media is more and more involved in our life, people are "pushed" to become digital media users.

Quality
The feature of user-generated content and personalized recommendation algorithms of digital media also gives a rise to confirmation bias. Writers may tend to seek out information that confirms their existing beliefs and ignore information that contradicts them. This can lead to one-sided, unbalanced content that does not present a complete picture of the issue.

The quality of digital contents varies from traditional academic or published writing in a lot of ways. Digital media writing is often more engaging and accessible to a broader audience than academic writing, which is usually intended for a specialized audience. Digital media writers often use a conversational tone, personal anecdotes, and multimedia elements like images and videos to enhance the reader's experience. For example, the veteran populist anti-EU campaigner Farage's tweets in 2017–2018 used a lot of colloquial expressions and catchphrases to resonate the “common sense” with audiences.

At the same time, digital media is also necessary for professional (academic) communicators to accomplish their career goals, for example, connecting with scholars in areas of interest and expertise. Even through the information on digital media can be a bit misleading and lack of regulation, the technologies and platform still help professional writers’ field and career.

The quality of digital contents is also influenced by capitalism and market-driven prosumerism. Writers may have commercial interests that influence the content they produce. For example, a writer who is paid to promote a particular product or service may write articles that are biased in favor of that product or service, even if it is not the best option for the reader.

Metadata
Another convention raised from metadata is artificial intelligence and automatic content generator. They can be used to generate written content automatically, such as news articles, product descriptions, and social media posts. This could reduce the time and effort required to create content and enable businesses to produce more content more quickly. Also, with AI and its access to huge database, digital writing can be personalized based on individual preferences, demographics, and behavior, which enhance the user experience and improve engagement with the content.

Ethics
Digital writing and content creation evolves at a significantly faster speed than writing on the traditional platforms. Since we are experiences social media with even more diverse academic, public, and communal contexts, ethical issues including privacy, individual rights, and representation evolve in an unexpected speed. Cultural rhetoric and identities are also important factor in promote accessibility, empowerment, and social justice. Cultural rhetoric and identities might regulate misbehaviors, but also might prevent digital media users from freely communication and expressing.
