I'm sure reddit will limp along, Tumblr did, myspace is still technically running although I don't know anyone that would use it.

Maybe a younger crowd will get attracted to the site, maybe it will live again on fresh blood but I'm just not going to be a part of it. I'm not going to endorse their actions with my presence.

There's a trend of using old point and shoot camera instead of the mobile phone or a mirrorless cams. The older the camera the more prestige you get.

Maybe they'll use MySpace to post those photos. Haha.

Let's see. Retro websites being used by gen z to try and see what it felt like during the times of their elders. To get a feel of the nostalgia posts they keep seeing in social media.
