a no longer merely function as communication tools but have become socio-cultural spaces that actively shape values, norms, symbols, and everyday practices. This phenomenon raises research questions regarding how cultural transformation and identity construction are influenced by the dominance of digital technology, as well as how social media and platform algorithms shape cultural visibility and digital identities. This study employs a qualitative approach through a critical narrative literature review, synthesizing theories of network society, mediatization, cultural globalization, digital capitalism, and digital identity. The analysis focuses on four key issues: cultural digitalization, the role of social media in identity formation, the emergence of hybrid identities, and platform power in determining cultural representation. Findings indicate that digital technology has ambivalent effects: it expands spaces for cultural expression, enhances public participation, and provides opportunities for marginalized groups to represent their identities; however, global platform dominance drives cultural homogenization, identity commodification, and inequitable symbolic representation. The novelty of this study lies in integrating a critical perspective on the influence of algorithms and digital capitalism in identity formation, which has rarely been addressed comprehensively in digital cultural studies. These findings offer theoretical contributions to media and cultural research as well as practical implications for understanding identity representation in the global digital era.

the most affected by these changes. One phenomenon that has emerged alongside the increasing use of social media is Fear of Missing Out (FoMO)—a feeling of anxiety or worry about being left out of trends, information, or social activities experienced by others. This phenomenon not only affects individuals psychologically but also has implications for students’ consumer behavior. This study aims to analyze the influence of FoMO on students’ consumptive behavior and to identify the mediating or reinforcing factors that shape this relationship. The research employs a qualitative approach, using data collection techniques through literature review from various recent and relevant sources. The findings indicate that FoMO has a significant correlation with the rise of consumptive behavior among students, especially in the context of purchasing symbolic goods that enhance one’s self-image on social media. Key factors influencing the relationship between FoMO and consumptive behavior include the level of digitalization, social dynamics such as peer pressure, and low self-control. Furthermore, the study finds that financial literacy plays an important protective role. Students with higher levels of financial literacy tend to be more capable of managing the consumptive urges triggered by FoMO. This research contributes new insights into the psychological impact of social media on students’ economic behavior. The novelty of the study lies in its in-depth analysis of the link between FoMO and student consumer behavior in the digital era, as well as the identification of relevant mediating factors. Therefore, the results of this study are expected to serve as a foundation for developing more adaptive digital and financial literacy education programs to meet the challenges of the technological era.

ah Mosque in Madong Village. In the current digital era, there has been a change in congregation behavior, and people are increasingly accustomed to conducting non-cash transactions through digital platforms such as mobile banking. However, the donation system in mosques is still dominated by conventional methods, such as using cash donation boxes, so congregations that do not carry physical cash experience obstacles in distributing donations. Furthermore, BKM also does not have an adequate understanding and infrastructure to manage the digital donation system optimally. This PKM activity was attended BKM administrators and congregation representatives. The methods used were participatory socialization, mentoring, and direct implementation. The activity results showed a knowledge transfer from the implementation team to the mosque management regarding the benefits and governance of digital donations. The main output of this activity is the realization of the implementation of digital donation services through the provision of QRIS codes connected to mosque accounts, equipped with standing banners placed in strategic areas of the mosque to facilitate the congregation in making donations practically and efficiently.

Namun demikian, sistem donasi di masjid masih didominasi oleh metode konvensional menggunakan kotak amal tunai, sehingga jemaah yang tidak membawa uang fisik mengalami kendala dalam menyalurkan donasi. Selain itu, pengurus masjid (BKM) juga belum memiliki pemahaman dan infrastruktur yang memadai untuk mengelola sistem donasi digital secara optimal. Kegiatan ini bertujuan untuk memberikan pengetahuan dan keterampilan teknis bagaimana donasi digital mampu meningkatkan kemudahan dan partisipasi jemaah. Kegiatan PkM ini dihadiri oleh para pengurus Badan Kemakmuran Masjid (BKM) dan perwakilan jemaah. Metode yang digunakan adalah sosialisasi-partisipatif, pendampingan, dan implementasi langsung.

HSAR Jaso Danau in Nagari Tikalak, Solok Regency, experienced a 35% decline in sales turnover over the past two years due to limited digital marketing and reliance on conventional sales. In addition, production capacity could only meet about 60% of market demand, with inconsistent product quality caused by the absence of written SOPs. The program was implemented using a participatory approach through stages of socialization, technical training, innovation adoption, and mentoring. The main focus included the development of production SOPs, logbooks and digital bookkeeping, organizational structuring, and digital marketing strategies using websites, QR Codes, and social media. The results revealed significant improvement in five key aspects: business recording, production, distribution, branding, and digital marketing. The average score increased from 2.7 (fair) in 2024 to 4.0 (good) in 2025, with the highest achievement in business recording and digital marketing through the activation of an official website and marketplace integration. This transformation demonstrates that digitalization of local food MSMEs not only improves product quality and consistency but also expands distribution channels, strengthens competitiveness, and supports the achievement of the SDGs, particularly women’s empowerment, poverty alleviation, economic growth, and sustainable consumption and production.

Abstrak: Program ini bertujuan mentransformasi produk olahan ikan bilih khas Danau Singkarak melalui digitalisasi usaha guna meningkatkan daya tarik wisata dan nilai tambah pangan lokal. Mitra kegiatan adalah POKLAHSAR Jaso Danau di Nagari Tikalak, Kabupaten Solok, yang mengalami penurunan omzet hingga 35% dalam dua tahun terakhir akibat keterbatasan pemasaran digital dan masih mengandalkan penjualan konvensional. Selain itu, kapasitas produksi hanya mampu memenuhi sekitar 60% permintaan pasar, dengan kualitas produk sering tidak konsisten karena ketiadaan SOP tertulis. Kegiatan dilaksanakan dengan pendekatan partisipatif melalui tahapan sosialisasi, pelatihan teknis, penerapan inovasi, dan pendampingan. Fokus utama meliputi penyusunan SOP produksi, logbook dan pembukuan digital, pembentukan struktur organisasi, serta strategi pemasaran berbasis website, QR Code, dan media sosial. Hasil menunjukkan peningkatan keterampilan signifikan pada lima aspek utama: pencatatan usaha, produksi, distribusi, branding, dan pemasaran digital. Skor rata-rata naik dari 2,7 (cukup) pada 2024 menjadi 4,0 (baik) pada 2025, dengan capaian terbesar pada pencatatan usaha dan pemasaran digital melalui aktivasi website resmi dan integrasi marketplace. Transformasi ini membuktikan bahwa digitalisasi UMKM pangan lokal tidak hanya memperbaiki kualitas dan konsistensi produk, tetapi juga memperluas distribusi, memperkuat daya saing, serta mendukung pencapaian SDGs, khususnya pemberdayaan perempuan, pengentasan kemiskinan, pertumbuhan ekonomi, dan konsumsi-produksi berkelanjutan.
