All of these platforms are still used by many. As a someone who left Reddit for Lemmy I gotta say a lot of these people have a heavy dose of copium saying Reddit is dead just because they'd like it to be.
Well it's dead to me, OK‽
When I think of it as dead I think of it the same way as Facebook. Sure it's still there but the vibe is thoroughly dead. They're where people get comfy and retire to stay stuck in their ways while others move on to greener pastures.
I thought it meant from being good then killed by greed and/or stupidity
Yes I pop in every now and then and reddit still has tons of activity. The communities I follow here are way more active on reddit still.
These platflorms are all declining. Facebook has been for years. This path leads to certain death. There is no way for them to recover from their past mistakes. So it's equivalent to being already dead for me
