Clearing someones list is a little far, but putting a selfie on their timeline or putting something dumb in their bio is harmless and makes me chuckle and if they cared about their shit theyd log out lmao
If you’re referring to AIM (and other messengers) as “social media,” I would definitely describe them as having a net positive impact on at least my personal life.
It’s more like Google chat or your contacts list of folks you SMS with. People you probably know from high school and nowadays you’d text, but AOL Instant Messager was free, used a device with a full keyboard, and didn’t require a cell phone which you didn’t have because it was 2001.
You shouldn’t.
If the goal was to teach me a lesson, there were less destructive ways to do it.
If the goal was to troll, well, that’s without redeeming qualities.

I agree that doing something non destructive is fine, if unnecessary.
Literally none of this is necessary
All right then, “beneficial.” To anyone involved.
Im really not convinced social media is very beneficial either lmao

Is that like an early chat room? Yeah that probably counts. And yeah, i stand by my point. I had some really shady encounters in chatrooms as a kid
