With the rise of TikTok, I wonder if Instagram is past its prime as well?

Most of my friends have stopped posting photos to Instagram, and just occasionally share stories now. But for short-form video content, TikTok seems to be growing much faster.

I don't think anyone here forgot it. The average user, however, even if informed, likely will not care. I tried to convey all the issues surrounding FB to my SO, which produced generalized shrug.

I think a more drastic message is needed. Maybe some more distributed version of fappening that affects nearly everyone. That could get some attention. Could.

Didn’t forget, I just remember how Zuckerberg regarded Facebook users back in the day (and those were Harvard students).
