Social media is on the decline. Instagram is all ads. No one's posting on BeReal. TikTok is for influencers. The new place for sharing: group chats.

That's basically how most of Instagram works and is what the article is about. No one knows folks on those platforms either. They aren't "social" anymore. No one shares anything personal, it's all "content" created for millions of followers by influencers and the like. This is probably more like social media than current platforms are. It's closer to what social media was when it started.
