So where are we all supposed to go now?

Twitter’s dying, Reddit’s changing, everything else is entertainment – and there’s nowhere left to hang out.

Not sure I agree with all of his points, but it’s a start that we’re at least publicly acknowledging this as the end of an era (for good IMO)

    I am expecting a time in the not too distant future where we’ll look back at the social media era with contempt, disgust, and shame

    I genuinely hope this is the end of social media. It’s been growing more and more toxic every second for years. When my Facebook feed went from interesting events in people’s lives to nothing but opinion pieces (THAT NOBODY ASKED FOR), I got rid of that shit. That was years ago and it’s just gotten worse since then. Absolute failed experiment that has genuinely made the world a worse place.

      That’s right, I remember the Facebook of 2010 when it was “Tonight I’m going to the concert of XXX” and “I am finally relaxing after a long day with a beer”.

      Only your friends and their updates in chronological order.

      The good times.
