I feel many link shortening services which shorten links maybe less popular these days because a lot of social networks may not have small text limits, and people don't trust using them.

True, but its better to just make your own site to set your own rules for that kind of thing.

I feel more people are also creating their own website with a paid or free web hosting, or forum hosting because they don't feel social networks are safe these days.

The text limit for post is higher on forums, so users usually do not need to use link shortners to avoid going over the limit.i

Usually there is more freedom on forums, which is why I like to use them and able to limit on what people try to post.

That is true there is usually more freedom on forums, and there are user registration settimgs and moderation tools to help reduce the amount of scammers an spammers from posting on forums.
