    Aren’t your friends meant to also use Lemmy for it to count as social media?

    No one I know knows what Lemmy is.

        Interaction through a medium is social media i guess. But i wouldn’t call ist that. Lemmy, WhatsApp and YouTube aren’t really social media for me. I don’t throw personal stuff into the void of people i more or less don’t know in hope to get likes.

        I would argue that a forum is a type of social media. It’s very different in that it’s as anonymous as you want it to be. But it is still a place where people visit for the purpose of socializing

      *I* don’t even know what Lemmy is, and I’ve been using it daily for months!
