It’s not just you — no one is posting on social media anymore::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.

      That’s not really what the article says though. Sounds like people are just doomscrolling curated content instead of creating content themselves.

        That also means less interesting content in general, which leads to a decrease in doomscrollers

          I dunno. According to the article, “While sharing has tailed off, consuming content hasn’t slowed”. I didn’t read the link that sentence hyperlinked to since it was behind a paywall.
