Not necessarily.
Something like Facebook is still useful for keeping in touch with extended family and social circles. I may not particularly care about great uncle John, but it's nice to be aware that he's in the hospital after a bad fall without that information going through 5 rounds of the telephone game.
Somewhere like Reddit or the fediverse? I would never want my real identity associated with these accounts. It's nice to have some anonymity.
Facebook is a (mistake/evil plot)
Facebook in specific? Sure.
But the idea of platform meant for keeping in loose direct contact with your extended family and social group? That has merit.
