    Not sure how good it is that the only remaining Social Networks are owner by Meta (I don’t count YT as a Social Media as I never use it to engage in comments there).

    Edit: Ig there is tiktok now, too. Still it makes Metas slice of the Social Media pie bigger.

      But Meta doesn’t own social media. They have some social media platforms that are finding direct, open-source alternatives to their service…for FREE. The days of uncontested, corporate-controlled, AI-manipulated social media have come to an end.

      Snapchat is also trying to add more social features to their TikTok-like feed, there are comments on there now, but it’s very rudimentary and right now there’s no way to add or view the profile of commenters, but they’re trying, and they already have a massive userbase.
