Compared against the predominant incumbent social media platforms, the fediverse is very small.
information sources:
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
No spam posting.
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
No trolling.

I'd argue that Twitch and Youtube are less a social media than LinkedIn. Twitch/Youtube is video streaming with interactive chat. That's it.
That's just my definition though. Yours may vary.
I see your point. The difference for me is the substance of the content. If the site was geared towards just something it's just a website. But it having content about anything makes it kind of social to me. I hear you though. I see where many of these don't fit into social media.
