Defining media I would describe it as a way to get information out whether it's wrong or right, through multiple different platforms and interfaces. Social media is taking what I just said and creating a talking space around it where it's interactive and sometimes fun but also occasionally brutal. I currently use Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, Facebook, Snapchat even Linkedin.
Every site is used differently because they are made differently or they were. They are all taking small parts of each other to try and become one super social media. Now you can use Instagram on a browser platform. Facebook has stories, Instagram has reels everything is trying to be like the other so the competition doesn't get wiped away even though they all pretty much started their own things when they were created. I would say at this day and age I have slowed down on using Twitter ever since Elon took over most likely. I use tik tok and Instagram a lot I really enjoy seeing videos and funny things, but recently Reddit has been my thing I have to get more threads to be on so my feed is full but I love seeing people write days or problems.
I use the social media I feel comfortable with and I have so many because I know my friends all have different preferences and when it comes to being open I always want to have open communications with everyone.
