  • Like the billions of people stuck on Facebook, for example, began with private fiscal incentives and now has made it _more expensive_ for people to leave (it's critical for more modern family reunions for example, since we're more accustomed to using a computer to mediate those relationships)

  • It certainly takes a lot of time an effort. With ~1700 RSS/Atom feeds in my rss reader I now usually see what's going to be on hackernews, lobsters, or other aggregators before it appears there.

  • I mean, there's definitely a pool of folks who've moved from network to network in lieu of administrative changes. Even the scare of the TikTok ban had (some) folks considering where (if anywhere) to go next (though that's tied more to their ability to make money on those platforms and less on community building)
