Social media platforms are entering a new phase as they confront issues related to misinformation, data privacy, and user engagement.
With algorithms under scrutiny, platforms like Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), and TikTok are tweaking how content is delivered, balancing engagement with the responsibility to curb the spread of false information.
New regulations are on the horizon in regions like the EU, where the Digital Services Act aims to hold platforms accountable for harmful content.
At the same time, decentralized social media platforms are emerging, giving users more control over their data and reducing reliance on big tech.
