Are Social Media Platforms Prioritizing Entertainment Over Value?

Hi everyone,
It feels like most feeds are dominated by entertaining clips and trends, while educational or value driven content seems to get less reach. I’m curious if platforms are pushing engagement over depth.

Do you think audiences still care about informative content, or has short, entertaining material taken over completely?
How are you balancing both in your strategy?

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

I think people still care about informative content, but the format has changed. You just need to make it shorter, more visual, and easier to digest. It’s not that audiences don’t want depth — they just consume it differently now.

Good point. I think audiences still care about learning, but they want it fast and engaging. Platforms push quick entertainment, so I mix both—start with something catchy, then give real value once I have attention.

Entertainment sells the most
FB been testing sticky lady faces for men
While showing becept for ladies
Clean videos showing soft porn get more views than educational content

It's a different world now
