Is it just me, or is Wattpad dying? I’m slowly watching books get deleted instead of updated, and authors disappearing without a trace.
I’m watching friends stop responding to messages, and readers stop commenting as they stop reading.
Wattpad is dying a slow death, and there’s nothing I can do about it. I have been on Wattpad for 4 years now, and it was my home. As a high school freshman I was writing 2 books a week, each with 1,000+ words a chapter. Now as a college freshman, I struggle to get chapters out on a constant basis.
Wattpad is growing up. Those children who were always on the app when they were younger and now grown up and in the real world. We can’t be there anymore, and the new generation is more interested in video games than in reading and writing.
As we begin to disappear, there is no one there to replace us.
Wattpad is dying a slow and inevitable death. And that’s what brings me to tears.
