Social media platforms by launch year

About this puzzle

Social networks feel like they appeared all at once, but the launch dates are spread across seven years of very different internet eras - dorm-room web directory, then desktop video, then mobile-first camera app. The tricky part is that cultural peak and launch date rarely line up: the platform you started using last may well be the older one. Ranking by launch year means ignoring how big each service eventually got.
