We can sense that there is a war going on right now between the various social media as well as the traditional ones, and inevitably in a war, there are losers. 
Personally, as a user, I have experienced the birth and death of many media. 
The first and most important death in social media was MYSPACE created in the summer of 2003, which quickly became the most popular social media, but it began to fall in popularity after the birth of FACEBOOK in 2004; and Twitter in 2006. 
What's the situation in 2020? 
MYSPACE is completely dead and out of the game; FACEBOOK has maintained its dominance but by buying and merging various acquisitions including the most popular at the moment: INSTAGRAM. What happens to Twitter? It remains to be seen but the medium is no longer what it once was in its infancy. 
Mark Zuckerberg doesn't see himself as a media but rather as a platform for people to meet, what I call private salons. 
The success or failure of social media directly influences the situation of traditional media and, unfortunately for them, there have only been deaths in combat since the birth of social media.
