Facebook is now for old folks (though for how long until they leave in disgust is anyone's guess.) Twatter only really exists because GEOTUS uses it (otherwise it'd be about as relevant as MySpace - 'member them?) Instagram and Snapchat are on the downturn as well. There's also the somewhat-still-used Disqus, though 90% of that is nothing more than a dumping ground for sex-spam bots and shitposting.
The new sweet hotness vehicles? Twitch, Discord, shit like that.
Meanwhile, I'm old enough to have used USENET and IRC on the regular... (USENET and NNTP still exist, but mostly as a subscription service these days, since no ISP really bothers with providing USENET service anymore. IRC is a crap-shoot, but I hadn't tried in years).
That's what everyone said about snapchat, instagram, facebook twitter
And very few people use snapchat now compared to 2 years ago. I personally have never used instagram and got rid of Facebook years ago.
So yeah, things move very quickly now.
You must be a boomer
No, all the boomers are on Facebook
snapchat and facebook are dead.

I'm old enough to have used TCP over carrier pigeon:

Given the amount of memory you can cram onto a thumb drive today, this would probably have better bandwidth than my DSL at home.
