I mean… I come from the forum scene and they were always called PMs, as in Private Message. What in the hell does DM stand for and when did things change from people calling them PMs to DMs.

      Dude, everyone calls them DMs, on FB, here, Reddit… in fact, I’ve never seen anyone call them PMs, except for me.

        Direct message became ubiquitous in the wake of “slide into your DM’s” as a phrase.

        At least in my experience.
