Humans are social animals. So, apps are just a layer between them. It’s not gonna go anywhere. It’ll change and new trends will emerge but as long as humans like to be social, it’ll be there.

Social media isn’t dead; it’s evolving. The explosive growth of new platforms might be over, but we’re seeing a shift toward niche communities and genuine connections. Users crave authenticity over polished content, and brands that tell real stories resonate more.
Augmented reality is gaining traction, enhancing user engagement, while privacy concerns are reshaping how platforms operate. Creators are also transitioning into brands themselves, using their influence to launch products and services.
In essence, social media is maturing. It’s all about adapting to user needs and staying innovative.

Facebook will be the next SM network to go.
Check out the 2 subs
r/facebook
r/facebook disabled me
People are suddenly getting their accounts wrongfully disabled for no apparent reason and/or falsely for the most horrendus allegations.
These disablements are done by their AI bots.
There is no way to contact a human for customer support.
All emails provided go unanswered.
Users have appealed, gotten ghosted and lost their accounts.
Facebooks over reliance on AI is going to be their demise. -
Social media isn’t dead; it’s evolving. The focus is shifting to community engagement and quality content. For those in the industry, embracing trends like video and interactive experiences will be crucial for future success. What are your thoughts?

I believe AI will change the industry. AI is likely to become the new driving force behind search engines, potentially reducing Google’s dominance.
It’s possible that AI-driven search could incorporate a user platform similar to social media, opening the door to a new type of outlet. Speculative, but it seems logical.
ChatGPT is already seeking to challenge Google, so it seems plausible they would look to other areas too.

I think the use of the “standard” platforms is what will change the most in the coming years. How people use and interract, and also what works for people and businesses posting.
I create content for people and businesses on social, and it still works (generated over 6 mill views this year). But its way more difficult creating content that works now vs. 5 years ago.

the way i see it. Social media is just an elaborate versions of the old yellow pages and white pages of the 90s. each and every social media ask for your name and contact details. it also ask to go through your phonebook. Some profiles are louder than others. I’d say the current trend right now. is live streaming and authenticity.

Social media isn’t dead, just evolving. New tech like AI and VR will shape the next wave, pushing content and engagement to new levels. Exciting times ahead!

I feel the next big platform could be something like a very cheap subscription based content platform, and if you subscribe to people who are part of that “network”, your subscription per creator is cheaper.
So you can subscribe to a network of podcasts, writers, artists etc.
The future could be small pockets of communities that can connect with intersect with one another.

I don’t think social media is a dead trend at all, it’s just evolving. While the “boom” of new platforms might have slowed down, the way we use social media is constantly changing. Platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and even the older ones like Facebook and X are still incredibly relevant, just in different ways. The focus seems to be shifting toward more niche communities, short-form video content, and authentic engagement.
For people making a living off social media, I think the next big thing will be deeper integrations with AI, more personalized content, and maybe even a stronger shift toward community-driven platforms, like Discord or specialized forums, where engagement feels more intimate. So, while the landscape has changed, I think there’s still plenty of room for growth and innovation! What do you think?
