From Global Gathering to Ghost Town: Is Social Media Dying and Where Do We Go From Here?

From Global Gathering to Ghost Town: Is Social Media Dying and Where Do We Go From Here?

The internet is currently undergoing a significant transformation, with major social media platforms like Twitter and Reddit facing decline and upheaval. Twitter's downfall has been particularly noticeable since Elon Musk's acquisition of the company, while Reddit has been alienating its developers and users.

Meanwhile, TikTok's popularity continues to rise, despite potential bans, and Instagram has morphed into an entertainment platform – and now we have Threads.

We try to unpack all of this, and ask ourselves the existential question – where do we all go now?

Helping us out is Amin Ashaari the Co-Founder and CEO of SoyaCincau
