Ah. OK, thanks. Yeah I mean it's pretty clear to me that there has been a
cultural/behavioral sea change which has been increasingly evident on the
internet for years. In fact, that's why I don't visit social media sites

would have been only briefly.

You can see the result of this in the stagnation and developer burnout. Not
a promising trend.
