More people are online then ever. Every person on this globe is a potential customer so they try to bring internet to everyone. Facebook had an initiative to bring internet to the thirdest of the third world just so they could make them Facebook users.
And we arrived to the problem, internet use is concentrated to a couple of big sites and people rarely wander away from those. Reasons are numerous:
- they don't know about the other options
- out of habit they just stay there
- they offer a wide variety of things so no need to visit other sites
- they find other sites unusual and can't comprehend their use (and no patience to learn them)
- they have limited time to spend on sites so they use what they use
- when they do a "Google search" about anything their hits are swamped with webshops - unless they deliberately searching for something specific
- we're living in the smartphone era, where they use apps instead of visiting websites, and every app is a competitor for the resources of their phone, for space, memory and cpu cycles, and there's a limit how many they can use, so they will ignore which will seem redundant or rarely used
- etc. etc.
