Social media is on the decline. Instagram is all ads. No one's posting on BeReal. TikTok is for influencers. The new place for sharing: group chats.

The three things cited in the post summary? Never been on them. I never ever heard of one of them. It seems to me that it's more that these few platforms are struggling, and other (twitter/x, reddit, facebook, and other) just keep sailing smoothly.

Indian aunties were on the group chat trend before it was cool.

I don't post because I know no one will see my posts, and I don't want to give them my data without feeding my narcism in return.

I have Instagram installed but frozen with "Ice Box" android app.

I open once per day or 2 days to catch up with some friends status. But I don't see those neverending reels anymore.

I deleted all my big tech accounts, and lots of people are posting on the fediverse.
