How many social media do you use?

[Anonymous]

Twitter/X
Facebook
Listserv
Twitch
Substack
Dischord
Blogger or other blogging software
TikTok
Instagram
Flickr (is that still around?)
MySpace (just kidding!)
Tumblr (Yahoo bought it and ruined it)
Zoom

I'm sure I've left a few out. I use e-mail (note the hyphen), a couple of Listservs, Zoom only because I have to, and texting on my phone because I have kids, who apparently don't understand how e-mail works.

Facebook to keep track of a few friends from high school, and the Twitter alternative BlueSky.

Zoom is not social media

Interesting observation. But it can be (mis)used as a social medium. Reminds me of a report that men are using Linkedin to pick up single women. Not the intended purpose of Linkedin, but apparently it is working better than the usual dating sites.

Facebook for keeping up with old friends and colleagues

Instagram for following celebrities from back in the day who now seem more accessible and tend to engage with fans directly through the platform

Twitter for those rare occasions when I need updates on local breaking news
