You won't find Austin on Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook, because the actor doesn't have any social media accounts. As he confessed during his interview with Coup De Main, he doesn't really get the appeal of maintaining an internet presence. "In the beginning, I remember having Facebook when I was thirteen and thinking, 'What am I gonna say?' I didn't know what to talk about," he joked. "Nothing felt important enough to say and put out for a bunch of people to read, and I kept going on there and using my time and looking at all these pictures and I just didn't understand why I was doing it."
Another reason why Austin doesn't do social media: he doesn't want to base his self-worth off of likes. " . . . it seems to be this mental trap that I've seen a lot of people get in, trying to get your likes, and also people think it will get you more work," Austin explained. "I suppose it might help get you the work, but once you get the work, you still need to be good . . . or something."
