People ditch Meta's social media apps (like Facebook, Instagram) for a variety of reasons. Here are some of the big ones:
Privacy Concerns: Meta has been under fire for its data collection practices and privacy breaches. Some users feel their data isn't secure and they don't like being tracked online [1].
Negative Content: Meta platforms can be breeding grounds for negativity, with lots of misinformation, hate speech, and flame wars. People who want a more positive online experience may leave [1].
Feeling Overwhelmed: Social media can be addictive and overwhelming. People might leave to simplify their lives and focus on real-world connections [1].
Competition: Newer platforms like TikTok offer different features and cater to different demographics. For instance, TikTok's focus on short-form video is a big draw for younger users [3].
Technical Issues: Outages and technical glitches can frustrate users and cause them to abandon ship, especially if they happen frequently
