It's not just you — no one is posting on social media anymore::Social media is on the decline. Instagram is all ads. No one's posting on BeReal. TikTok is for influencers. The new place for sharing: group chats.

I'm guessing that we are around 1% of the general population 😉

Not enough for a big company to build a community on though. Of course, it would have helped if Google hadn't restricted sign-up. Just because it worked for Gmail, but a social network is a different beast than email, that already had a critical mass of users.
