Am I the only one who grew up with absolutely zero social media?

[SecularIslamist]

I've used Twitter, Facebook and insta for trolling and stalking purposes. But that's it. Always hid as anon, never revealed myself or added real life contacts.

I briefly had FB for like 2 months during uni. But because I was gonna start with less than 50 friends I deactivated.

Even people around my age in late 20s. I can remember in uni, the lecturer asked us to put our hands up if we don't have Facebook or Twitter as he was going to share some video on there. I was sat in the front of the lecture hall and I was the only one to put my hand up out of 150-ish people. He congratulated me and said 'thats really good, yeah I wanna get off Facebook/Twitter too - bet you're missing out on the parties though'. Brutal.

' bet you're missing out on the parties though'.

Until age 14, nothing. But I was on computer since I was 5 years old anyway, so

They aren't. But that's literally what 90% of students look forward to, and also the main way you make friends.

I’ve only used MySpace, Facebook and snap. Not anymore though, now it’s only looksmax.org. And YouTube if that counts.

Same, I only remember using windows live messenger when I was like 5 first getting into computers but my main way of communication were forums or imageboards, which lead to the exposure of my younger self to questionable content.
