Yeah, especially when there’s so much alienation in society ppl find ways to conversate and social media is poor substitute, but it’s an outlet people have to conversations. But with Ai and the rise of pseudo not posters I feel understandable ppl are disengaging because the main point was to connect with real people but now it’s being overran with bots, content creators spamming their links, and so forth.
Yeah I feel the future of social media is gonna be more private self moderating chats. Especially as AI generate content will fill ppl feeds with more and more clutter it’s bound to happen. I don’t have the stats on me, but most ppl lurk and rarely post, I read. So with less posters and more lurkers it’s becoming less interesting .
Like I only recently started posting a couple of years ago not daily or even weekly but occasionally because, I realized that some body has to post, and why not it me?
My gawd, I laughed to hard at this !
