    This tracks. Youtube’s introduced 30 second unskippable ads for some reason I cannot fathom (I exit all the way out of the app whenver they try that) and the slow and steady decline of most mainstream social media is expected, due to the enshitification.

    Twitter and now Reddit are probably going to die slow deaths, although Twitter will most likely go first. Reddit… may hold on for longer until a mainstream competitor arrives to replace it, or people finally decide to try the Fediverse.
