For me, IIRC, MySpace was more about IRL me existing online. Had my friends and classmates on my friends list and interacted with them much similarly as I did IRL.

LiveJournal and forum sites were much more strictly for fandom. Most of the people I knew IRL weren't into online fandoming or were in fandoms I wasn't into.

So I relatively began to see online stuff as more hobbyist stuff, not so much social media is the online representation of "me" as a human being.

Facebook never appealed to me because for a while MySpace was more fun to be on but when MySpace began to die out, a lot of my fandom friends were on FB and they were friend requesting small time celebrities. Shared some dumb shit those celebs were posting. I created a FB profile to stay connected to my fandom friends since the forums spaces we were on were dying out. I generally tried using FB as a small glimpse into my RL but also a small bit of my fandom interests. When people I knew IRL began friend requesting me I used FB less and less, never a place I posted on a lot.

So generally speaking I tended to split up my online ID.
Twitter started out similarly to FB. Most of my IRL friends weren't into Twitter and slowly I saw fandoming become more prevalent there. It eventually became my main fandom ID. It was me, I didn't hide my name or age, but the majority of what I used Twitter for was for fandom stuff. And then I deleted my Twitter account because by 2021 I was using it less and less. Fandoming sucked on there, Villain of the Day BS was getting tired, Musk buying the thing made the place worse and worse so I deleted my account once I realized Twitter wasn't a fun or interesting place anymore.

I never really used LJ but my friends used it a lot. As it died out, friends on LJ moved to Tumblr. Tumblr's formatting was really ugly and not fun to scroll for me so even though my fandom friends were super into it I didn't join it. Until Twitter began to suck ass. I joined Tumblr way past its' prime and it's OK. It's a space where I mostly repost fandom stuff and DM my fandom friends.

All this to say, I don't think people use socials in the same ways and everyone approaches their online ID and/or fandom ID differently.

I personally find it hard not to engage in some form of politics no matter what you do.
Also, some stuff is way more engaging when it's stuff I can enjoy with others. Sometimes with IRL friends, sometimes moreso with fandom friends.

I think it's interesting for people who can both have their IRL ID be part of their fandom ID (like YouTube creators for example).

Most social medias don't/never appeal(ed) to me because I generally see online stuff as more hobbyist/fandom stuff. Anything outside of that is boring/uninteresting to me.
In terms of politics...I suppose only so much of it can be a thing online, because politics affects our every day lives so it's bound to break the barriers for me and...it can become exhausting to engage with.
