Also, if no one is posting on social media, then what the hell are we all doing right now then?

I don’t consider this or reddit social media. I don’t know anyone, nor do I care to.

Instead it is like a collection of forums since forever like in the bbs days.

I pick and choose what rooms to go in and learn something. But it isn’t about me, or staying connected. You know, the social part.

That’s basically how most of Instagram works and is what the article is about. No one knows folks on those platforms either. They aren’t “social” anymore. No one shares anything personal, it’s all “content” created for millions of followers by influencers and the like. This is probably more like social media than current platforms are. It’s closer to what social media was when it started.
