I'm just curious, as I was replying to chad_ghost about how to get the word out about the Legends of the Hidden Force KS what platforms on here that people use.
For me it's just HissTank and YouTube. I have a FB account, but I use it mostly like old PIM software, and don't 'browse' it. I'm only in a handful of low-traffic groups, and check it maybe twice a week at most. I don't see any value in short form video or photo-sharing-driven content, so I don't have TikTok or IG accounts. I'm wondering what the rest of the Tank looks like. Maybe it will help other folks to get the word out about things might like. |

I don't like these big tech companies having power over me so outside Google, which I need to use for now, I try to not use them

YouTube and Facebook.
My primary tv watching entertainment comes from YouTube - but I'm not likely to watch or listen to a podcast or anything gijoe related that isn't the actual gijoe cartoons on hasbro's youtube channel. I have my Facebook o-ring gijoe groups and this place for gijoe stuff. I found out about strike force alpha, longbow, recall, legends of the hidden force and delta 7 through various connections from these o-ring gijoe groups. |

I make a lot of videos for my YouTube channel but otherwise don't engage with any of these.
There are GiJoe collector groups on many of the other non-corporate social medias not listed here, though.

I lurk more than interact, but Twitter (especially @preterniadotcom for toy news) and Reddit are the main ones I use.

Youtube and Facebook pretty much all day if I'm at work. Twitter about once a day. I just signed up after the new management took over, so I don't have to watch my mouth now.

I probably browse Instagram more than any other platform for toy and customs content. There are a quite a few UK customisers that I follow there. I used to post my own kitbash photos, but haven't done for a while.
YouTube, I'm a bit hit and miss on to be honest. I've zero interest in toy content creators, unless I'm searching for a review on a specific figure/vehicle to get a better feel than photos. I do like YouTube for tutorials and I'm planning on making some dioramas in the coming months. I mainly use Facebook just for family stuff these days, but rarely go on it. I'll check out the Marauder Task Force group every now and then, but not as much as I used to. I don't like Twitter so mainly avoid it. |

I make videos for YouTube so I use that quite a bit. I tend to go to Facebook and now here for information and community and some news but I also get lots of that from Twitter and Reddit even before it hits the news cycle. I have an IG account but haven’t posted since October of last year and I don’t mess with TikTok though people keep sending me videos to watch lol

I still love the old forums, like HT and OG13 (although the latter has been reduced to a small band of buddies in 1-2 threads).
I also love listening to the Full Force podcasts; I highly recommend getting interviewed by Chris. I used to listen to WOJM, but the banter is not funny, and there’s way too much to wade through to get to the actual content; no thanks. Outside of that, I use IG quite a bit, exclusively hobby-related. While I am on FB, I generally use it for friends/family connections. I can’t stand the lowest common denominator mindset I see in those groups. Having said that, Chad should definitely promote in those FB groups that allow him to. IG really is another great spot. Twitter is, too, from what I hear, but I would have zero clue, as I skipped that platform from start (to likely finish). I’m not a video guy, but many are, so…Youtube is another wise bet. I prefer listening to and reading about my hobby to watching.
