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.

Too bad whatapp spies on you just as much. For whole communities to be in private chats seems rather counter productive for new people to find it.

    Agreed on spying, though I don't think it's any worse than posting on public sites.

    The new people concern cuts both ways. Yes, it's moderately harder for brand new folks to learn about them and gain access. But it's far from impossible, and the additional hurdle or effort tends to substantially cut down on trolls, spammers, etc.
