Of course not. Things happen based on what investors and developers want. Users are very much secondary. They're a nuisance. If things did really happen based on some user-base need, would we have had Instagram or Facebook in their current form?
- robot 4y agoThere is some kind of balance since both of those are free. I'm sure they prioritize user engagement and any loss of users is inadvertent.
- Rebelgecko 4y agoI think so? FB exists in its current form because they're worried about users preferring TikTok
- grishka 4y agoSee, it's them being worried about it. Users are totally fine with there being different forms of social media. That is what users want. No one ever asked other social media companies to add TikTok-like functionality — they already have actual TikTok for that.
