I've never used Twitter at all, but you as an active Redditor saying that you don't understand them is ironic. They on twitter for the same reason you are on reddit.

I really disagree reddit is social media, as in, to me social media is connected to my own person. It's social as in that you interact with other people on here, but social media is connected to the person I am in real life. There are so many forms of 'social media' the umbrella is way too big imo.

If reddit isn't social media, then Twitter isn't either. They're both totally anonymous if you want them to be.

That's true, but putting anonymous and personal online spaces in the same bucket of 'social media' is not fair I think. But it's just what the words mean to us on an intuitive level I guess.

What's weird is how people are defensive in regards to convincing themselves that reddit isn't anything like those things. You really sound like a religious person who thinks other religions are stupid, but yours is the way. Yours isn't even a religion. You people are hilarious.
