Interesting article [1] and excellent line : "social media has become less
social and more media".

Speaking for myself, my publicly visible social media usage has generally
been "sharing things I read that I find interesting" - dating from the
first social media site as it is understood today, sixdegrees. This
continues to be the case.

But looking at the actual meaning of *social* *media*, however, I can see
consistency in my usage of closed (or semi-closed, such as special interest
usenet groups like sci.crypt) groups, ranging across usenet, email, and,
since the pandemic began, closed whatsapp groups.

What does your social media historical usage look like?
