At first glance, Iād prefer to have Effective altruism on social media, or maybe actually just Social media, rather than the more fine-grained ones. (Also, I do think something in this vicinity is indeed worth having.) Reasoning:
Iām not sure if any of the specific platforms warrant an entry
If we have entries for the specific platforms, then what about posts relevant to effective altruism on some other platform?
We shouldnāt just create an entry for every other platform thereās at least one post relevant to, nor should we put them all under one of the other single-platform-focused tags.
But having an entry for Facebook, another for Twitter, and another for social media as a whole seems like too much?
Regarding dropping āEffective altruism onā and just saying āSocial mediaā:
Presumably there are also posts on things like the effects of social media, the future trajectory of it, or ways to use it for good or intervene in it that arenāt just about writing about EA on it?
And it seems like itād be good to capture those posts under the same entry?
Though maybe an entry for social mediaand an entry for effective altruism on social media are both warranted?
Though also note that thereās already a tag for effective altruism in the media, which has substantial overlap with this. But I think thatās probably okāsocial media seems a sufficiently notable subset of āthe mediaā to warrant its own entry.
(Btw, for the sake of interpreting the upvotes as evidence: I upvoted your comment, though as I noted I disagree a bit on the best name/āscope.)
(Just wanted to send someone a link to a tag for Social media or something like that, then realised it doesnāt exist yet, so I guess Iāll bump this thread for a second opinion, and maybe create this in a few days if no one else does)

I donāt have accounts on social media and donāt follow discussions happening there, so I defer to you and others with more familiarity.
