Inspired by a comment in another thread, what was the path you took over your life, through the various online social media we’ve had?

By way of example, I started in Yahoo chatrooms, to a little bit of Myspace and private forums, to ICQ and IRC, to no online socials for awhile, to facebook, to 4chan, to reddit, ending up here on lemmy.

I’ve never used twitter, insta, tiktok, etc for any length of time.

If you’d like, your native language and a rough estimate of your age can be included for additional context.

    Facebook was a horrible mistake. I jumped off when I realized I didn’t want to associate with the people there.

    Jumped off Reddit when my app was blocked.

    Edit: mid-50’s English speaker (well, American English, if that still counts), also remembered that there was a dialup bulletin board back in the day.
