We may be seeing the end of less savvy user, which tbh is a good thing.
Should clarify: by less savvy I mean "People who do not actively seek out social interactions online unless it is via a platform thrust under their nose as a massive zeitgeist"
I've been farting around on the internet since fredmail, I shall continue farting long after the corporate monoliths have died
I've often said that one of the worst inventions was the smart phone, but I think social media has a lot to explain for itself as well. I was discussing this with the wifey the other day, saying how Instagram seems to be one of the few that people are still actively turning to (and I guess TikTok?). Both of those platforms really blur the definition of "social" media. It doesn't seem like they're widely used to communicate with people they know (vaguely or otherwise), but rather give this faux connection with celebrities, causes or anything else that some people seem to deem as "important."
seems like vaguely interactive television
