Rise of troll bots, it's easy to run an AI farm now that almost comes across as human.

Then if you want to destroy a forum, you just post a lot of random talk about literal nonsense, and make it super emotional, and then all the normal people are driven away, thus destroying the forum.

This seems to have been repeated around the entire internet, and now it's a communication wasteland.

Also the fact that the average age of an internet user is probably the youngest it's ever been, and ever will be.

I think those older folks see what a trainwreck most social media is, and realize they have better ways to spend their time. But that's just a guess
