Most of my friends have stopped posting photos to Instagram, and just occasionally share stories now. But for short-form video content, TikTok seems to be growing much faster.
I think a more drastic message is needed. Maybe some more distributed version of fappening that affects nearly everyone. That could get some attention. Could.
Idk how much of that is true, but apps like Instagram and tiktok are definitely talked about more these days
The older folks make facebook sticky for the younger people too. It might not be their first choice for social media, but they're on there cause extended family are on there.
Some people quit facebook, most people don't. There's lots of groups, and now you have market place. It's genuinely useful.
We still don't really think much of it as a social network but somehow while we weren't looking it pretty much ate Craigslist, Meetup, and Local News so now we're on the platform again. Like if someone has some baby formula they don't need, we find out on Facebook. If somebody gets stabbed at the pizzeria across the street, we find out on Facebook. If there's a card game tournament, I (found) out on Facebook.
I know FB owns Instagram but the point is, Facebook as a platform may be past its prime in NA.
