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.

    I still visit Reddit but I no longer engage in any way, other than reading comments. No up/down voting, not commenting, no reporting spam. Nothing but reading with multiple layers of ad-blocking.

    PS: the overall quality/value has dropped precipitously

      I deleted my main Reddit account but still find myself going back there occasionally for specific topics. For example, I haven’t found a goof place on Lemmy to ask travel questions.

        place on Lemmy to ask travel questions.

        Good luck. One poster would ask if you like sex and travel, then tell you to “Go and get fucked.”

        Another would accuse you of being a bourgeois lib who is killing the planet with your capitalist excesses.

        Another would go on a rant about privilege and how your very ability to ask such questions in a public space speaks to your total lack class consciousness and your ignorance of “The Movement” or something like it.

        In short, check out Vang Vieng in Laos and have a great time.
