I like that you can follow scientists and authors directly at the source though.
For what? Is your life in any way any meaningfully different? Why is it important to be connected to people that you don't know, will never know, and will never interact with? Wouldn't a better expenditure of energy go towards fostering relationships with people in your community?
And you're on Lemmy?
Message board isn't social media. I don't follow any of you fucks. I don't give a shit.
Then why complain about what another person decides to waste time on the Internet while you're wasting time on the Internet? I'm replying to you while taking a shit so that's multitasking.
Every media that allows you to be social is a social media
That's the dumbest fucking nonsense I'll read all day today. Thanks!
Social. What we're doing now.
Jazzhands Media!
Facebook is just a message board with different features.
Yes. It's called profiles, that you use to generate links, socially, within your peer group.
Not a fucking message board. You don't get to re-define history just because something new came up.
Reddit and Lemmy are just as much social networks as Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn. You don't get to stay in 2010 just because you want to pretend you're not doing something you don't like.
