but the question remains: Are social media art? are programmers of social media artists? I do not doubt there are programmers that are artists and programs or implementations of programming that is art. That's not what I am asking. And I don't mean art in the sense of "State of the art" or "term of art", as in patents.

I think PavlovsCat is saying that software shares a trait with art via this Alan Moore quote instead of saying that software is art.
