I feel like the vast majority of casual users won't really bother switching. I only bothered cos Reddit was the only thing even remotely close to social media that I used
That's what I was wondering, if it would feel less like a "great migration" and more like a "great filtration." Which ideally would mean varied yet like-minded users, if that somehow makes sense.
That is a great way to look at it. I left FB at least 10 years ago. I ended up arguing with a family member and realized how pointlessly stupid the entire platform was for me. I didn't use social media other than reddit for nearly a decade.
It's just time to move on to the next thing. It's weird because that jump has to happen with other people but not too many.
