Any social media that you isn't open and self hostable (Lemmy, Mastodon, etc) should not be used. That includes Facebook, Instagram, Twitter/X, TikTok, and more.
Most social media has, IMHO, been a net-negative for society and I am in the generation that grew up with it in its infancy.
My one wish for Fediverse would be federated identities. So I don't have to have baronvonj@ for ever single one of them.
You're describing what Tim Berners-Lee is tryna build with Solid.
I see a GitHub and Xitter linked on there. Any clue if they have a Mastodon or something similar that I could follow?
Not as far as I know. There's this Mastodon, but doesn't look legit: https://mastodon.online/@Solid
Ooh, snazzy. I'll give it a look.
