“Enshittification will continue until revenue improves”
Jokes on them, I don’t have any.
Oh. I made myself sad.
Is snapchat still a thing? Never used that but I thought from screenshots and memes that tiktok killed it (never used that either)
I never understood that. Apparently they use it as a primary way of messaging each other? At least that’s what younger relatives have told me. I’ve tried to have them explain what makes the app designed to hide/delete stuff after it’s been read better for communication, but so far haven’t gotten an explanation I could make any sense of.
Yeah my brother says its the main way to talk to girls, which sexting was its original purpose so makes sense. But also the streak system and ease of picture messaging I think keeps people using it.
Maybe. I’ve only known Snapchat used for sending pictures of one’s privates, which is quite direct now that I think about it.
Definitely, I have a few group chats. It’s good for general memery and snapping funny things throughout the day.

Me: ? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Somebody asked where they could find me on social media the other day and my response was “strange places using fake names”. Eventually turned into me trying to pitch the fediverse but it kinda landed in much the way birds don’t.
Aaaaand that’s going to be it for snapchat. FUCK the greed, fuck your ads. FUCK your analytics.
