everyone calling reddit social media is wrong

it's a forum and message board platform not social media it doesn't work like twitter or instagram or tiktok

and I think this is why everyone on tumblr is more accepting of their refugees and not twitters (besides the twitter refugees bringing old discourse back)

because tumblr is also not social media it's a blogging platform. both tumblr and reddit are similar in that they both reflect the internet of old, when forums and blogs and personal websites were more popular, a time when you didn't post about every little thing in your life, when you could be anonymous

and no matter how hard the ceos or the staff of either websites may try they can never fully transform into the next twitter or whatever without fundamentally changing what these websites are. which would be a death sentence

people aren't coming to these websites for social media, they're coming for the community, for the uniqueness, for the long discussions they can have without a character limit, for information, for anonymity. to browse the internet without feeling pressured into posting perfectly fake photos and stories about your life in a desperate attempt for likes and attention

At work experiencing macroaggressions as my coworkers discuss our owner’s trans son and non-binary identities

“The Bible says demons use they/them pronouns! I don’t know where it says that. Somebody just told me once. Don’t take offense” and this was after them asking me how I identify and I was like “as a human” because I didn’t know what else to say. “Im a woman” feels like lying. “I’m a lesbian” nobody understands how that’s a gender “I’m non-binary” what and get more microaggressions slung my way? Uggghhhh
