I just shitpost🙃

Half of what I post is bullshit and I'm not telling you which half. Is this comment included? You'll never know for sure.
According to my online presence I'm a 58 year old overweight lesbian developer from Nebraska.
I could also be a 22 year old white supremacist rancher from Montana.
Or I could be a fat balding Iranian guy running a motel out of Southern California.
whelp....guess that's all I've got.

TIL, thanks
It spawned a whole bunch of memes. What a dumb ass.

The best distiction i've heard is that social media follows people (twitter, youtube, mastodon, etc... whereas lemmy, reddit, etc... follow topics. They're more like news feeds with a comment section.
If you just wanted to follow a topic, you could follow Wikipedia RSS feeds.
If you're reading and responding to comments, you're engaging in social media.
-
Ok bare with me here. News feeds with comments is? is it media that is social?
I'll bear with you, but I don't want to get naked with you.
-
that would make sense if there wasnt a number of lemmy communities dedicated to documenting drama from other lemmy communities and users, not to mention blood feuds between different domains
Lemmy reporting on lemmy is just regular old news i'm pretty sure. Would an online newspaper with a comment section count as social media then? How about paper newspapers with an active "comments from readers" section?

We used to call things like Lemmy a 'forum'.

Mine are up but the details apply to about 2010-2013 era activities. Definitely no longer a priority

We used to call things like a forum a "BBS".

Yeah, I came from ebaumsworld forums to Reddit, and Reddit to here, and they all scratch the same itch, which is basically me engaging in meaningless (not always) conversation with people, sometimes seriously, sometimes jokingly. All that's changed is how it looks and how people talk.

A lot of assholes describe themselves that way. Interesting
Are you guys not on the same side of the argument? Not about the buttholes and their expulsions, but about where forums/message boards rank versus Facebook.
If, like all things, it's a gradient, I'd plop these message boards far left of the likes of Myspace, and xanga, etc.
-
Thats me. I have 2 "social media" accounts, Lemmy and YT (coz I need the tutorials). My yt account is an old ex-boyfriend account that I stole from him a good 10 years ago lol
I love that

That's not the point of contention. It's about whether or not forums/message boards (regardless of political ideology) can correctly be categorized as "social media".
They wrongly contend that not only is that possible but in fact inarguably correct.
I, on the other hand, correctly pointed out the ridiculousness of such a claim.
This in turn made them jump to the separate incorrect conclusion that my slightly brusque wordplay was proof positive that I was overcome with apoplectic fits of all-consuming rage and that fondling lawn trimmings would be an effective remedy.
TL;DR: It's all very silly and inconsequential, but I'm having fun

Heck ya, tutorials and hobby tear downs and builds. Also a good smattering of science education.
