Tom May – Social media in 2025: why creatives are ditching ‚rented‘ spaces for owned platforms:
“Instagram’s prioritising of suggested content over personal connections, X’s lurch toward rewarding rather than punishing trolls, Meta’s ongoing privacy concerns, the broad shift from text and images to short-form video, and the controversial role social media CEOs are playing in Trump’s government—all of these issues and more have left creatives questioning their investment in these spaces.
But what’s emerging instead is something very positive: a renaissance of personal websites, newsletters and blogs. Startup advisor and writer Birgitte Rasine is typical when she says: ‚I’ve decided to build my own forever home. A space I own and have full control over, not someone else’s platform.’”
