Does Sup Forums qualify as 'social media'?

Does Sup Forums qualify as 'social media'?

Yeah, but with less normies.

Define social media. Is a BBS "social media"? Is a mailing list "social media"?

Sup Forums is to social media as Facebook is to meaningful social relationships.

Not anymore than a forum qualfies.

Peasants like you make me sick. there are plenty of Normans on Sup Forums, and you """people""" should stop posting

I dislike this pasta.

>Fuckboi

>disliking pasta is disliking Sup Forums
>that wasn't pasta

no

>tfw you can do all of these things
I've finally ascended robot-dom I guess.

>Is a BBS "social media"?
Yes.

>Is a mailing list "social media"?
It depends on how it's being used. If it's primarily for socializing, then yes. If it's the semi-automated mailing list for a software bug-tracker, for example, then no. I.e., cock.li is social media but GNU's help-debbugs is not.

Yep

I think Sup Forums would technically qualify as 'social media' as it is defined, but probably wouldn't qualify as social media in the way that most people think of social media.

It's an electronic medium in which people communicate. That makes it social media.

The definition of social media is much broader than most people think. Even email is a type of social media.

Given the default lack of persistent identities, along with the treatment people who attempt to use them receive, I'd say that no, Sup Forums is not social media.
It can be social, mind you. There are occasionally thread long discussions between people whose written voices are distinctive enough to identify them, but that seldom lasts through an entire thread, let alone from thread to thread.

IT COUNTS AS SOCIAL MEDIA ONLY IF YOU TRIP FAG

>Does Sup Forums qualify as 'social media'?

On anonymous boards, not really.

On boards with id numbers (like /soc/) then yes, I would say so.

Sup Forums has too many blog posts to be "antisocial media"

If you think the majority of people here can run a mile in 7 minutes you're retarded

>If you think the majority of people here can run a mile in 7 minutes you're retarded
the majority of Sup Forums posters are peasants who think they are anything other than normie fucks despite being basic bitches
>"dude I can't play an instrument or heel-toe downshift, but I installed linux so that means I aint no normie! "
kill you'reself fucking virgin-peasant

jej

no
they are not persistent enough to "keep" an identity and attention whore so no even on them

Yeah but at least I don't have a shit attitude

>tfw wanted to get a manual car but had to settle for sport mode automatic because I'm a poorfag
none of the other things apply to me except the last two, but running is for fags and I don't have time to listen to 1000 albums

If that picture was a little more zoomed out so you could see more of the ground, and there was an open manhole with the cover moved aside and a man with a bad hair cut sticking his head out, Sup Forums would be that guy.

Can you teach me how to wear shoes I bought at the mall?
