Of course. I spent most of my time then on IRC or on text-based forums. TikTok or Snapchat or whatever today's kids use all the time weren't things, I have literally never had an account on either of them. I think recommendation algorithms are a bad thing and we should try to build platforms that don't have them; this is independent of users' ages though.
