What websites, and other social platforms do you use?

my 3 year old or older Reddit account got banned for a silly reason. I used to use Reddit to ask and learn about privacy, tech and other stuff. I'm not planning on making a new account after how they banned my account carelessly and inreasonably. So, I want to know where do you go if you want to ask about apps, tech, privacy or similar stuff. I know I'm already here but to be honest there are not much of people interacting here. I have Mastodon account but I don't know good communities on the Fediverse.

I don't use any social media. Canceled Facebook 8 years ago and WhatsApp 2 years later. Life is better without.
To get Information I use standard search engines (except Google, Microsoft and so on) and forums like this.

Kamika242 it's a good thing, I left some of them but not all. Especially for Reddit because it's more of interacting with people on an intrest rather than usual social media. Though all big platforms became strict, anti-user, used to push agenda and to spy

I have used Reddit for this before but I'm not really active on there currently. The other social media I use I mainly use for other things. In general I tend to treat social media as a tool. If you count YouTube as social media I use that frequently. I'm also a regular Discord user too.

Fluxer is the best Discord alternative.

https://www.eff.org and https://www.privacyguides.org/en/ are great if you just want news and knowledge without having to scroll through forum posts.
