I think people won't care, at least this demographic fellow Gen Z. They still gonna use the app. Arguemnts such as "oh everyone uses this to send funny tiktoks to themselves it's not that big of a deal" it will be just more shit to go through. Similar thing to Twitter. Everyone is so pissed at Elon because more bot accounts, you can't or couldn't block him and other shady stuff but still uses the twitter (X) because... everyone uses it.
But I also hope it will kill the app.
I’m seeing people moving to sky (or whatever it’s called). It takes time for people to switch social media platforms.
Oh yeah true. Some people switched to Bluesky (I think that what you meant). I remember the (especially artists) moved like 2-3 years ago because all this changes about feeding the AI and Twitter just being garbage (all porn bots and people being hateful about anything you do).
