Facebook is hard to leave because whenever your friends leave, the feed simply replaces them with other friends or ads (and now, perhaps, AI accounts). You don’t realize what left. You believe you still need it to talk with your family (some family) .
You don’t know who you’re talking to on maybe forum sites like Reddit, and I doubt most users follow other users, so as long as something relatively human sounding is heckling you, it’s easy to feel like there’s still good user engagement.
I don’t know what the future holds but I hope it’s kind.
The companies are already replacing those that leave with AI accounts.
