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.
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.
I was thinking it was the bots posting more

you certainly have a high opinion of your own activities, eh?
I agree that the kind of “social media” that is popular among the general public (i.e. sharing information about one’s own life) is fairly stupid. But Lemmy too is “social media”, any support forum is “social media”, even wikis are “social media”, and I do not think that those are stupid things to do, at all.
I think you use that “social” term too widely.
support forum is “social media”, even wikis are “social media”,
Completely disagree. I don’t see any social component here. Of course you can say that any resource where one user can leave a message readable by another user is a social media, but… what’s the point? I can write a message on the brick wall and it would be readable by others :)

Yes, writing here is almost a complete waste of time. “Almost” because I have one rational reason to continue to do it: I try to improve my English. As soon as Lemmy will stop helping me with that, I will move my attention to something more interesting than arguing with strangers about unimportant things :)
Who on Earth was clamoring for more things the length of ads?
