People here like to say “I don’t use social media; I use forums” like there is a difference between the two. There isn’t.
Forums are places where people post and comment on user generated content, other comments themselves.

Eh. I feel like people are choosing to change the definition so they can feel better about themselves. They aren’t the unwashed masses on Facebook or other “social media”, they are enlightened thinkers who use “forums” to converse instead.
The change in definition seems to be done specifically so people can say they are better than others.
Maybe…but they also aren’t getting the real world “clout” that they are getting (or think they are getting) from real identity posturing and curated profiles. I’m not saying you’re wrong, necessarily. Just that there’s two types of arrogance at play here.
