Nothing is settled. It’s 2003 again!

Have people done that before when migrating to new platforms? I don't recall seeing "Friendster refugee" or "MySpace refugee" on newer platforms in the 00s.

If you are 22 years old, Twitter has been around for about as long as you’ve known how to read. YouTube is fixed as firmly as the stars. I honestly don’t know how that feels, but I wonder if it’s claustrophobic?
Robin Sloan • Notes on Web3
But you know what? I really like the physical world. I like to feel like
a healthy animal. Too much time in the virtual world makes me feel worse.
I don't like it. And to me there is no question that the qualities of
the physical place where I live are far, far more important than anything
about the Internet, and always will be.
