I hole you're right about that analogy. 

 Well, 😅 people believe what they want to believe lol 

 I believe that. 

 From my experience Myspace bled users because of bugs and problems after some updates.

For example, someone sent you a message and you didn't get a notification, so you didn't know that you had a message to respond to.

The technical failures made Myspace completely useless for communication. I suspected that Myspace was sabotaged but it is possible that it was merely mismanagement and poorly tested updates. 

 wow i didn’t even realise that happened. must have been part of the late stage collapse.I just checked and Its still going in the most deprived from lol. Never thought to really look into it until you mentioned it. I never really left myspace, I just started using facebook because my bigger sister set it up for me when i was about 15. 

 I remember that Myspace added new visual designs and the community was unhappy with the changes, combined with a ton of bugs.

There was a couple of times when I would write to some person I knew on Myspace and it was unclear if they had received the message.

Before the updates, Myspace had worked good enough and after the updates the platform was a disaster so people stopped log in and there was an escalating migration. 

 Maybe if they hadn’t fucked up, me and all my friends would still be on it. would be great if someone made a new one that worked. 🤔
