No matter how much you rationalise it, forum is still a social media. You are still socialising after all-- in a medium of communication. You can still post pictures in forums if you want, but modern social platforms just have better UI and convenience to post videos and photos than older forums.
By your definition even email is social media.
Well, people have been sending mails before just for fun. Hence the phenomenon of "penpals".
