I am indeed old
(sopuli.xyz)
I wait for them to be regurgitated until they end up youtube or lemmy.
why would this be a symbol of old age?
i feel like it's actually just an incestuous mix of thinking you are better than tiktok but still holding onto an immature version of yourself by being on instagram.
maybe i just see social media use as an inherently immature thing? (including lemmy)
idk, is this a wrong opinion to hold?
Nah, I'd say the same. Never understood this meme-craze. Especially the silly trend to make videos even shorter and shorter for all the tiny-attention-spans that doom-scroll mediocre (at best) content that is purely done to farm clicks.
Let alone the privacy-aspect of those grotesque social-medias. Except lemmy though. And reddit had its moments of good talks too.
And I'm old enough to miss IRC 😁
Because that's what happens as you age
I think social media can be used for a large variety of things. Many important movements (50501 for a current example) greatly rely on social media to mobilize folks.
Email is a social media and it's very grown up.
i guess its a media that is intended for social use, but i feel thays similar to calling a cooked meal "processed food". like yeah technically correct (best kind), but also defying the indended meaning when most people use the term.
The top 5 websites in the world are mostly reposts from the other 4.
I find out about tiktok videos through lemmy or somebody in the family signal chat sharing them (if ever). Yesterday I found out about Baby Rexha (?) and Bad Bunny, which sounded like video games, but are music artists.
You know more about yoof culture than me
Barely, but it helps having yoof in the signal chat 😛
I watch YouTube shorts. On my pc, when I get home. Because grayjay doesn't show shorts.
I hate shorts because they are different from what was cool in my youth
Pants only.
I watch neither because neither has a passable web UI, especially without a login
I would watch the good stuff posted by y'all, but none of you are wading through the shit to find said good stuff for the rest of us. 😔 ^/s^
And here I was, thinking my lemmy feed was the sign of me being hip and youthful...
spoiler
Ah well, I guess it's off to pixelfed for me.
I wait til they’re talked about of @fter Midnight. It’s a natural filter, so I only see what’s really important.

A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
