> There are people who use social media without the desire to be "seen" or recommended to random people via an algorithm.
Social media without the desire to be "seen" or recommended to random people, is just a messaging app.

But even still, for people that do post, social media has many forms. I personally use it to interact with people in my social circle, but not much further.
Take Twitter. I follow friends, and even some random content creators I'm familiar with from other platforms. I post, but with the knowledge that only a select few people will see it (in fact, I remove followers I don't know externally). But I strictly avoid algorithmically "recommended" content, sticking to just my chronological news feed.
