Not even close. It simply has too much critical mass.

Twitter was taken over by a white south african nazi and grifter with delicate sensibilities and people are still using it like nothing has happened.

Reddit would have to enshitify even more, and believe me they are trying.

I'm not seeing any proof the Twitter is doing well as a company.

[-] Credibly_Human@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

It doesn't need to. This is about the relevance of the platform, and it remains highly relevant.

Social media companies exist to control what the public thinks the public thinks (generally). They don't care nearly as much about profitability, and its obvious that musk more than others felt this way, especially with getting exactly what he wanted politically.

that and i don’t think its ever been profitable

to add to your point the biggest community on sh.itjust.works:

people love twitter so much they subscribe to it on other social media platforms!

It's why they want to ban NSFW content, with "Oh btw LGBT, ESPECIALLY T content counts as NSFW" stipulations

Didn't people leave it for BlueSky? I can't figure out how to use BlueSky... could never get Twitter to work either, maybe it's too Gen Z for my Millenial ass?

Didn’t people leave it for BlueSky?

A small number of people yes, but most influencers remain on Twitter or use both.

I should also point out that BlueSky is backed by crypto bros and they've never had any intentions of improving anything the way the people who want to move moved things.

They ran on the idea of decentralization but ultimately BlueSky is, in practice, completely centralized and its not possible to decentralize it. You can run your own instance, but that would just be a separate centralized instance as opposed to any sort of meaningful federation.

I hate to say it but.... that has nothing to do with age, because there are old people on either. Its just a microblog platform like any other microblog platform.

The problem is I can't find any worthwhile content. Feels like it's completely random what shows up on my feed

[-] Credibly_Human@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Well, until you start following people you like the content of, of course no algorithm will have good suggestions for you, so youll get a generic one hoping that you like something eventually and thus it can fine tune.
