After two decades, it feels like no one is themselves on Facebook anymore.

    I dislike the whole concept of “social media” in the Facebook sense.

    I think the ideal form of “social media”, which was also popular in 2004, was the web forum. I want that back, not something where I have to follow people, but something where I can meet and find people with common interests and discuss those interests with them.

      There was an article recently talking about how forums are still around. Has a decent list too:
