thanks. may I ask how you get free traffic from social media? I am not familiar with social media and I thought you have to pay for ads to get any traffic in facebook and instagram.

"All sections you described many people skip and go to organic by principle."
Yes like 10% of users do that the rest of 90% click/use the first 2 results at the top of the search page....OP is right, in the last 3 years G made constant efforts to kill free traffic and monetise as much traffic as they can.

I agree, its defintily harder now to get that easy traffic from before with all the google ads and such in the serp, but there is still alot of openings if you find the right keywords for sure

Many more users do that.
Ads get skipped almost completely.
AI responses are messing with organic traffic, true. We can see this from the rise of zero click searches. But it's not as high as 90% fortunately.
However, their tendency is to get 100% of traffic to their channel that is for sure. OP is right in this regard.

YAWN! Another person who is failing that cant make anything work. It changes every year and sometimes multiple times a year with every update. Look at the winners and losers and try to figure out why like everyone else. Or you can piggyback off the winners in search who are already getting traffic. There are many strategies ive been using since 2007 that still work just fine today in 2025. If your referring to Blackhat ones, well they burn out fast as they are spammy.
