FB is also starting to pee me off. I have a Twitter account but don not use it. I have no clue how to use Instagram.

Believe it or not, but most of what I know (which is little) 4x4 wise, I got from Forums such as this.

The most important part for me is this. I feel that help is much easier and quickly received on a Forum than it is via any other Social platform. Does WhatsApp count as social media?

It is a lot easier to refer back to previous assistance on a forum than on any of the other social media platforms

I think any media where you can interact socially can be regarded as such. But agree that forums are about the best option for specific topics. WhatsApp is just a tool, but less sophisticated
