There are many social media platforms, but for me, X or Twitter is the best at the moment, go there, create an account ( if it is possible use your name) if it is taken or somehow you do not want to use it, you can use a business name.

I do not recommend creating anonymous accounts, so use your image and add something that stands out on the banner.
