People call stuff like Lemmy, 4chan or Reddit social media too but to me it's always these Facebook or Instagram style self-presentation platforms. All of them suck ass.

I'd categorize these as forums rather than social media. I mean there isnt that much socializing happening around here

Neither is it on social media anymore, it's all just dick measuring, scams, MLMs, attention seeking and hating on outgroups now.

I call it asocial media, personally.

Anti-social media.

Forums are also social medias

There's more socialising here than on Facebook. Imagine trying to discuss philosophy on Facebook. Wouldn't work. Reddit is much moreso social media than Facebook is.
