In Catalonia, my little country in the Mediterranean, Facebook’s pretty much a ghost town, especially for millennials and Gen Z. Moving people away from Instagram, though, feels like a much tougher challenge. These platforms have had over a decade to build up so much stuff for users that leaving just seems like too much effort.
I’m not sure what the future holds, but a more fragmented, federated setup feels like a way better option than sticking with the same old stable monopolies.
- dieselgate 2y agoWas tuenti ever big in Catalonia? Was never a user but visiting family in Madrid circa 2010 it seemed like a big deal. Curious if it’s still used at all.
- elevensup 2y agoNot as big as in Madrid, but I remember some friends trying it. Never that kind of moment, though. Facebook had quite a big implementation here... but at some point in 2017 or 2018 everyone started fogetting about it.
