All that stuff still exists, mostly where they used to be.
If you're not using it, you moved on, not them.

A place to share screenshots of Microblog posts, whether from Mastodon, tumblr, ~~Twitter~~ X, KBin, Threads or elsewhere.
Created as an evolution of White People Twitter and other tweet-capture subreddits.
RULES:
- Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
- Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
- Absolutely no NSFL content.
- Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.
- No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

Eh… sort of.
Social media has largely replaced the personal blog.
Most forums shifted to subreddits. Then Reddit enshittified to monetize user content for LLMs, a lots of folks (myself included) burned their post and comment history on the way out.
All that stuff still exists, in some of the places it used to be.
The ones that are still around are more the exception rather than the rule.
I want to hijack this conversation to post the obvious but not reminder, that when you find dead links and content that's no longer available, go check the wayback machine and Internet archive... it's been soooo useful.
And reveddit.com :)
Most indie games no longer seem to have forums. Some don't even have wikis. It's just discord and Reddit these days.
Mp3 blogs did migrate to shitify playlists though.

So glad I never experience any of that "2026" nonsense. Lemmy/Piefed for the win
I disagree with the generalisation. I get the juxtaposition, but making money online was a big thing in 2006, too, just as free platforms and sane conversation still exist in 2026. See present company.
