Yes! That’s what happened with Facebook too. Techy people left the platform long ago but it’s still really useful for other types of users, the ones who don’t really want to invest time into learning how to use a different platform.
I deleted my account 7 years ago, but my SO is still using hers and it brings her real value. She is active in the local communities, uses the marketplace, etc.
Ironically, I’ve been trying to get her to use Reddit more over the past few years…
In that case, maybe we’ll just have to grow a similar community here as well.
