    Forums are definitely social media, but I like to think of them as the less shitty kind.

      True, whenever I see “social media” brought up though I’m always picturing Facebook, Twitter, Myspace. This and reddit and forums definitely are a form of though. Even bbs back in the day.

      I tend to divide them based on how much they want to manipulate and sell me shit. Also how much of my personal info they require.
