I am a bit sad about the decline of Instagram. For a few years, I could watch the daily life of all my friends and acquaintances. Lots of organic communication and mutual engagement happened. Now only businesspeople, narcissists and (wannabe) influencers are left.
At this point I feel embarrassed to upload anything. Not that it matters, engagement from other people is at an all time low. Comments seem to be mostly bots.
TikTok is an echo chamber of narcissists and people with unwarranted self importance, but dialed to 11, just like twitter, but with more ADHD. Reddit is the embodiment of mediocrity, ruled by wrongthink policing moderators.
I am not enjoying social media anymore, I feel there is no place for me.
