This is the top of my feed on lemmy.world... yeah Reddit is totally dying

reddit was the biggest webiste in the US at one point wasn't it?

What do you think it will die just one day to the next?

Facebook is kinda dead, isn't it? but there is a big factor of inertia in it, it's a huge site, so it dies slowly.

Myspace and yahoo are both still here too.

Making my own custom Yahoo homepage widget by widget was really fun in 2008 :)

I mean it's more like social media in general is dying. Alex here is the future.

Edit: I knew a guy that was a little bit like this. I.e. young and nerdy enough that I'd expect him to have his eyeballs on the news feed, but no. I used to have to explain references to a bunch of stuff that was "going on" because he didn't care about being "up to date".

Whenever I explained one of those things it rarely felt like knowing that stuff was worth it. It's mostly noise.
