I’m developing a social media network, so the user base will hopefully be that of the average joe (not corporations). A lot of articles that date back to 2009 state that you shouldn’t exlusively rely on CSS3 due to limited support. Is this still true today?

It depends on what browsers you want to support. The question is a little too broad to answer directly because some CSS3 elements are more widely supported than others, which means you kind of need to take it on a case-by-case basis.
Check some sites like these before using various CSS3 elements:

My overall advice is to use it! There are a lot of exciting and fun features, but just be aware of adding graceful degradation if you need to support some older browsers.
