Google Facebook Amazon looking solid for the foreseeable future to me. I don't think you'll begin to search anywhere else or buy anywhere else similar that will replace them any time soon.

These have been the most valuable platforms in my experience

Who's the most vulnerable to competition?

Facebook buys its competition. Amazon gotta deal with Alibaba. Google gotta fight off Amazon for product search...

And of course who knows what Apple will do

Amazon has a moat with AWS and its logistics. And they helped put some bookstores out of business.

FB has a crazy user base and personal data for ad targeting.

Google has probably unmatched search algorithms and computing power.

I think Amazon is the strongest here...

People forget that Amazon is a search engine too, like YouTube. Plus they have all that purchasing data. And reviews.

Lots of companies are terrified of Amazon taking their customers. The Rona might have made it worse.

In a world where Amazon dominates, what happens to Google and Facebook? I think they lose the bottom of the funnel and compete for the top. But Google isn't really made for top of the funnel ads, too expensive. So FB wins: Google is facing competition from both sides. It can't

Match Amazon in the cloud or with deliveries. It doesn't keep you on the site as long as Facebook. It sells less and less product ads as Amazon gets stronger. It sells less and less other ads as Facebook gets more popular with marketers. What would you do?

Google already has ads all over YouTube. Hopefully as video grows, they'll compensate. But FB is moving on them there too.

My answer? They gotta dominate ar/vr and gaming somehow. Plus blockchain involvement. It'll still be a fight with Facebook. But they need the eyeballs of the future to see their ads. That's these kids

This is just my opinion as a long-time user of these platforms. we'll see what happens.

If you didn't know, I was referring to the stats at the very end of this thread (Amazon vs. Google search): https://twitter.com/NoPlay_/status/1264710983936704513
