What social media platforms are people using these days to share photos etc with their actual friends? Or is that totally uncool?

I'm an older millenial (1995) and I'm now nostalgic not only for the pre-social-media internet, but social media where you actually shared stuff with friends rather than only seeing influencers. Is there anywhere people are sharing photos of their holidays and stuff, or is that totally uncool? Do people (my age) still use Instagram for this? Sometimes I see my friends post on there, but it's buried under a sea of stuff from influencers I don't even follow, so I can't tell how common it is.

Hey everyone, I'm majorly craving morcilla (Spanish blood sausage) and more specifically the type where you can cut open the sausage, fry the contents and spread it on bread etc (photo example here). I'm also gluten free.

Does anyone know if there's anywhere I can get this in Canberra? I've looked up various bakeries online but can't find anything.

I live in an apartment block, and I want to get a wifi/smart* doorbell. However, it would face an (outdoor) common area of the apartment block. I want to get one that only turns on when the button is pressed, but it seems that most have this "AI person/motion detection" enabled by default, and perhaps impossible to turn off.

*I actually don't want the camera function; I just want a doorbell that can a) automatically turn off at certain times so disruptive people can't ring it randomly at 1am and b) audio to my phone. I can recognise people I know by their voices. I guess I could just get a video doorbell and tape over the camera...

I'm a part-time masters student looking to knock off some elective credits over summer (ANU doesn't offer summer subjects in my course). I found out MIT has online subjects you can enrol in and do a proctored online exam -- proper 14-week courses (150+ hours) that MIT itself counts as elective credit if you subsequently get into one of their masters programs. Example: https://learn.mit.edu/courses/course-v1:MITxT+14.740x

Has anyone done these or similar then gotten ANU credit for them?

Thanks!
