I used to be all over social media since the Myspace days but it's been exhausting over the last handful of years. I know I don't use it as much anymore and neither do any of my friends. But like the article said a lot of us still watch video content.
Fewer people posting on social media
Hurray! People stop doing stupid shit!
it highlights a social media shift as platforms boost short video.
Fuck. People have found even stupider way to express their idiocy.
That's one thing that I suspect to be making it hard for the fediverse to attract users. Maybe lot of people are just tired of social networks and not in the mood to try a new one, so they end up just drastically reducing their social media usage and are happy with it.
I bet that progressive eshittification of big social media platforms done by greedy corporations is liable here as well.
What a better world it would be if their greed actually just destroyed them
I'm just trying to be patient until we can get a solid uprising going.
