I don't do social media. Therefore, this site is not social media.
I actually agree with Fox here. Sure, you can use a sweeping definition that would include forums such as this one, but anyone with sense also knows the difference. This ain't Facebook. It's not a platform. It's a chat board.

It's a platform. Somewhat different in style to facebook, but serves an identical puprose. Pretend the difference is meaningful if it makes you feel better, but this site is for social networking. Period.

No likes. No followers. No universal membership. No official communications from governments and elected officials, no drivel from celebrities and others pointlessly documenting their every move and thought. Small number of people discussing a specific, narrow area of interest. Different enough for me.

I suppose if you narrow the definition of anything enough, it would lose all applications. Facebook is one type of social media networking. But that doesn't make it the only type.

Or if you expand it enough, it will embrace everything and lose all distinctions.

I think a chat board distinguishes itself enough to not be considered a social media platform. Just because it shares an online existence where people argue...I mean communicate...those who use SM would find a chat board incredibly limited and limiting.

Here is a hopefully nice size pic of the GOAT of powerlifting and myself to be kinda on topic.

Now to the off topic subject of social media. Right or wrong I have always considered this forum and the 2 others I am a member of social media.

Except I didn't expand anything. I literally posted the definition from the dictionary.

We aren't just making up the definition of words here.

"The" dictionary, like there is only one. I am sure given ten minutes I could find sites drawing distinctions between chatboards and social media platforms. Anyway, it's all good.
