Comment on twitter
spankmonkey@lemmy.world 1 week agoThose were pretty much social sites using text with a tiny bit of media (occasional images).
Social media has a big emphasis on the media part, with video clips and images and so on for starting most of the discussions. Twitter started off mostly text and kind of became social media based on the screenshot I have seen of it.

And I think social media revolved heavily around people sharing the mundanity of their everyday life with the world, and in my experience, that was very rarely the point of message boards or forums.
