The discussion suggests that social media platforms may follow the trajectory of dying malls. Critics note the toxicity of social media compared to malls, emphasizing that malls involved mutually beneficial economics unlike the exploitative practices of social media. The rise of smaller, niche communities is seen as a healthier evolution from the toxicity of larger platforms like Twitter and Reddit, which have become hostile toward users. Moreover, the anticipated rise of autonomous agents for communication may render traditional social media platforms obsolete. Overall, while the decline of major social media might seem negative, it potentially leads to better quality interactions and community building.
