Which old social media UI do you still remember using? 😭

The social media platforms we use every day once looked almost unrecognizable. YouTube arrived in 2005 with a simple video-sharing interface, while Facebook began in 2004 as a college social network before expanding to the general public in 2006. Twitter also launched publicly in 2006, built around short status updates that were originally limited to 140 characters. Instagram launched in 2010 as a mobile photo-sharing app, with features like Photo Maps appearing in 2012. Snapchat began in 2011 under the name Picaboo before becoming Snapchat, initially centering on photos that disappeared after being viewed.
