MODERATORS
myspace.com is still a website you can visit, but no one does. facebook is going down that path once their userbase ages out of living. the artist formerly known as twitter is going to go bankrupt and a very salty elon musk will sell it for a fraction of what we bought it for and who tf knows what happens to it after that.
It will be interesting to see, whether Meta manages to stay afloat even without Facebook.
Buying Instagram was one of their best business moves and kept them connected with the younglings for a while. They couldn't replicate that with TikTok or the likes.
Over time, Facebook will become irrelevant, but Meta might actually manage to buy apps left and right hoping to hit the new unicorn.
