No hate to anyone, but imo, social media has lost the original meaning for which it was founded. It was created for communicating with people, but many have become completely absorbed in it and forgotten how to live and talk in reality. There is so much to learn from these platforms beyond mere amusement, but they have become solely about entertainment. There is no respect for anyone with the anonymity it had. While it has its own pros and cons, I feel it’s declining, and companies don’t seem to care about this issue until they stop making profits.

    Isn’t that we are trying to create here with the fediverse? Social media that the users want, not what large corporations.
