So last decade was filled with corporate social media: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Reddit, etc. And I mean it still is but perhaps if we play our cards right we can make 2020 the age of decentralized social media? Maybe we won’t end up being the top 5 pages on the internet but we just have to grab a good portion of people to compete more directly with the big corpos. Descripción

    Honestly it seems like social media as we know it is kind of dying. Fewer and fewer young people are using Facebook and Twitter. I think it’s going devolve back onto more forum based ala Lemmy, tildes, squabbles, reddit, etc where people can joing the communities they enjoy, and also through discord, WhatsApp, etc for chatting with people in those interests.

    • I mean imo I think that the internet is at its best when everyone keeps to themselves and only addresses problems pressing within their own community. At times there will be cause for large awareness or topics that span across communities, but too much of the toxicity on Twitter is people having opinions about communities that they aren’t even apart of.
