• Nicksil 7y ago
  HN is an Internet forum: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_forum https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_forum

    Which is one kind of medium for socially interacting.

      Well, if you insist, sure, but social networks are focused on people while forums are focused on topics (news article etc.). The difference is significant enough that some people may post on various forums all day long but never on Twitter or FB.

  Social media like the rest of them, except you can be pseudonymous here.
  • icedchai 7y ago
    You can be pseudonymous on almost all of them. For the ones that "require" real names, your name just has to look real.
