Is This the End of Social Media? With Ian Bogost
Ian Bogost, author and professor at Washington University in St. Louis, talks with Jon about the demise of online social networks. In a recent Atlantic article, "The Age of Social Media Is Ending," Bogost examines the platforms' dipping trajectory and argues that people just aren't meant to talk to each other this much. He joins Offline to elaborate on how Twitter, Instagram and TikTok have sacrificed connection for content, friendship for sponsorship––and why a cultural shift in how we interact with these platforms may be closer than we think.
