MODERATORS
The thing I can't decide is whether the exodus will start from people most plugged in and who can see how shitty the Internet really is or from people least plugged in and who have nothing to lose from quitting.
the 'net junkies will hang on until the bitter end. can't even properly quit twitter
Good point. I think a better question would be whether the exodus will start from:
normal people quitting because they have too much real life bullshit on their plate and don't want more bullshit to deal with
some subculture centered around how much the Internet sucks putting their subculture's ethos into practice by quitting
i imagine some combo of both. since i deleted myself off of all the big social media platforms, the only people who don't regard me as a total weirdo are the crunchies who hate screens and the people with very high IT competency. these people, at the tails of the bell curve, are like, "that's smart." it's the people in the middle who are irritated they can't like my likes or see where i went to high school.
