Well, looks like this is the end of any social media use for me. Reddit was already hanging by a thread for me. Not being able to use Apollo for this will be the last nail in the coffin.

Serious question and I don't mean anything negative - Do you consider HN to be social media?

Using it as just a news source seems really valid.

And it feels different from other social media platforms because of the focus on full discussions. But surely this still counts as social media?

Genuinely asking because I see you made your account just to post this comment - why did you do that? It's not a bad thing (I'm here too), I'm just curious why you felt it was important to do?

No. It is not social media. Neither is Reddit. Social media is any platform that can be used to track you down to send you an invite to your high school reunion. That is, it is not anonymous. Social media is social - real people interacting with each other in a non anonymous manner. I have no proof that anyone on here, or Reddit, is not a bot except for me.
