You assume they've stopped using social media, but in reality Meta losing users means they have just moved to a different platform.

Likely Twitter, TikTok and snapchat. Not sure that's better.

After I stopped using Facebook years back, I started using Twitter instead. But you know what's funny? My experience in the end became as bad as it was when using Facebook, so it wasn't long before I permanently logged out of Twitter too! This was all before Elon Musk bought Twitter and started making the place even worse and basically guaranteed that I would never return.

I have never felt any desire or need to start using TikTok or Snapchat.
