I honestly don't remember ever encountering dir at school, worryingly.

# yes. for example: "Wie geht's dir?" (how are you?)
is answered "Mir geht's gut"

# I've literally only ever heard "Wie geht's?"
Which is "How goes it?" to my knowledge.

Damn German, it's the only language other than English I can speak passably and it's possibly the least impressive sounding.

you use dir or du with written correspondence, since just 'wie geht's' is quite informal.
You could argue that b3ta is essentially just a conversation, though.
