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.

It's not just about content creators becoming good though, the article also explains how the algorithm pushes that content over others.

Granted, the quality of the content is still a big part of it, another point it makes is that people refrain from posting things because it's not "good enough" compared to others.
