Tl,dr: Musk is irratic and has no plan, per a journalist who has covered him for five years.

    RIP reddit, RIP twitter

    Who is next? Facebook would have to make a notable blunder to join them. Unlikely.

        I’ve been on facebook since it was still limited by domain names and it was a big deal when my campus was finally added to the list of approved email domains. I’ve watched it’s evolution over the years. Facebook is a shell of a website these days - almost nobody uses it compared to what it was ten years ago. I use it to keep in touch with some older family members and old friends, but for the most part nobody uses it or posts often. It’s all junk from different FB groups and an excessive amount of ads.

      Let the older generation stay on Facebook. We don’t want them out in society.

      Let the trolls stay on Twitter, let the types of people whom defend Spaz stay on Reddit, and let the influencers stay on Instagram. Those are the best places for them.

      If you’re comfortable with Lemmy, then there are enough of us here to let this grown organically.

      We don’t need one platform to rule all.

      Meanwhile, Tumblr is strangely still around. They had a minor Blunder, but that basically became a site-wife in-joke, and they seem to be doing rather well for themselves.

      Are there any major social media companies left after them, besides Facebook?
