I hope it humbles whoever builds the next platform. Nothing lasts forever no matter how entrenched it is in the zeitgeist.
Once something gets big enough, it becomes impossible to moderate and eventually it will fall out of fashion and lose its original intent. Look at Etsy and Amazon.
I'm finding people are rearely loyal customers to a brand long-term. Rather, they want whatever platform gets them what they want. People jump from sites like Aliexpress to Wish to Shein to whichever webiste has the most latest and marketing team.
I wouldn't mind some fresh blood even for this purpose.
