I don’t really count Lemmy or Mastodon. They feel more like forums to me, but that might be my age showing. I know traditional forums these days have fallen out of popularity.

forums, message boards, reddunit, fuzzbook, instagone.. anywhere you interact with multiple ppl is these days technically social media

This is more content-first where facebook/twitter/etc are user-first. I think user-first brings out worse patterns.

As long as you get away from the social media algorithmic platforms it’s good

Forums and blogs were not what people mean by "social media." Lemmy is an evolution of forums.
