why?
Using social media to say that you shouldn’t bother using social media
That's hypocrisy, not irony.
The irony comes from the fact that the statement criticizes social media while being made on a social media platform itself. It shows a contradiction between the message and the medium, which can be seen as a form of self-awareness or humor.
when did anonymous forums become social media?
You get downvoted but you are right.
Social media is when the main subject is your social stuff. Like your person, your pictures, your opinions, etc.
Lemmy is a forum where we talk about subjects and don't share our social stuff by default.
just because everyone is objectively wrong doesn't mean I'm not an old man yelling at clouds
This thread is like talking to my father who insists that "mainstream media" is evil, while he watches Fox News and misses the irony entirely.
When they allowed you a form of media through which to socialize.
always have been
since usenet.
It's social. and it's media. you put them together like peanut butter and jelly and you have an awful sandwich, but it's still social media.
