Any social media that you isn't open and self hostable (Lemmy, Mastodon, etc) should not be used. That includes Facebook, Instagram, Twitter/X, TikTok, and more.

Most social media has, IMHO, been a net-negative for society and I am in the generation that grew up with it in its infancy.

My one wish for Fediverse would be federated identities. So I don't have to have baronvonj@ for ever single one of them.
