FWIW, this forum IS social media.
Not quite the same content but social media all the same.
We're not all eating Tide Pods though. Except maybe a couple here and there. Instead, we ask the same things over and over that have been covered in countless threads:

What is the best cold air intake?
What are the best headers?
Does anyone have a catback exhaust?

What was the best at one time, might not be ATM, or even in production anymore.
Forums would die if everyone "just" used the search function.

Another example of how social media is ruining society, the combination of smart phones/social media started our downward slide into the toilet.

I feel awful for kids having to grow up in the social media generation.

Yes and no. this is more an information site. For learning about this generation car and peoples use of it.
I am not sure, but I'll assume this site isn't tracking us and selling out data, like other forms of media.
Social media is broadly defined. You could include quite anything that involves social interaction that is unrelated of purely informational topics. But this site is MODERATED and has ruled to follow.
The big sites might claim this as well but we see that there are no moral standards that are enforced like in smaller groups like here.

You can consider it whatever you want. But you're leaving an electronic footprint that can be accessed.
Believing anything else is foolish.

Most forums, "prune" threads that are not long term knowledge. I.E. the off topic parts or threads that are the 25th of the same thing. To save storage space.
Not all, but many.

Thankfully I have splined lugs, and my car never sits out.

I shouldn't have to worry but thanks for letting us know. I just let everyone I care about know too even though 99% of people don't even confirm air is in their tires before driving off. Thinking it's kind of hard to check your lugs too if they're finger tight you wouldn't even know unless you touched each one. Or are they removing them completely? That's easier to spot for sure. I like to be in the "shoot someone for messing with my car" crowd but majority of places the punishment for that isn't worth it. Cops wont be around any time soon one way or the other. I prefer to let them live with a memorable experience like a good ass whoopen, like the good ol days.

What really sickened me when I read it was the statistics on teen and preteen suicide rates in comparison to social media popularity. It also sickens me to hear my nearly 50 year old step mother talk about a tick tock video she saw. Social media is toxic to society.

I had a MySpace for a couple months because all the other kids in high school had one. Didnā€™t use it, didnā€™t know why it existed, I had all my friends numbers and knew where they livedā€¦ Hell, I didnā€™t live in a house with internet service until 2014 or 15 when a buddy moved in and gave me his WiFi password. I donā€™t use anything other than forums, other than here Iā€™m on firearms talk forum, oilburners.net (6.9 and 7.3 idi diesels), and an rc crawler forum.

I swear I was born in the wrong generationā€¦
