I gotta say no. This is more like a collection of forums. There really is no following, no social aspect other than discussing the topic at hand. I am not promoting myself, I prefer annonymity over identifying myself. I do not think this counts as social media at all.
Disagree, politely… Not in the “OMG INTERNET DISAGREEMENT I HOPE YOUR MOTHER GETS FUCKED BY A HORSE!” way.
Reddit/Lemmy/Etc are nothing more than slightly more elaborate twitter with better filtering/catagorization. Social media all the way down.
But its its not a major issue, so its not like we need to invest time in a slapfight over whose wrong and whose right.
Nice to know it is a pleasant disagreement. But seriously, this is not social media.
-
Posting other peoples content instead of their own
-
Anonymity over identifiable.
-
Its not better filtering, it is distinct categories and communities, just like forums.
-
Persistent over breaking news.
-
There are no (or few) personal updates or status reports.
-
There is little to no social networking which is the hallmark of social media, like twitter, Linked In, Facebook, etc.
