Is it dead? People are leaving but I don't think it's dead... Yet
Nah it's a long way from dying, I doubt it will ever go under in the foreseeable future anyway.
People are constantly announcing their departures from X and make a whole show about it. Only to come back after a couple of days or weeks.
Social platforms are under the same effect as voting. Over half population either supports it or is too ill informed. They just want to scroll their feed without thinking too much. Same way voters just vote for the one that sounds alright on the surface. Combined with the fervent supporters makes a majority. It's the minority of voters/users who are opinionated against it.
