Only a small fraction of users are content creators (at least successfully).

We may have reached the point where there is a critical mass of paid professional content creators rather than amateur creators who will be more likely to leave for new platforms. The professionals stick around on platforms because they have fans/viewers who are profitable.

Yes, but I also miss when the people on the internet were smarter than average.
