Many millennials don't use Facebook anymore and people under 18 aren't even making accounts there. From what I've heard, things like Instagram are popular with younger people instead. So not exactly like the tides are turning back to forums, but maybe there will be a gap that needs to be filled if FB-use continues in this direction. After all, Instagram doesn't seem like a useful platform for having a discussion with multiple people.
I don't consider myself "younger" anymore, but I permanently deleted my facebook account earlier this year. A number of people around my age have as well. Many of us were among the last members of the college-only generation of facebook, before they started letting everyone in. Facebook has become increasingly unpopular due to how information is delivered and what information is delivered; from being biased to flat out false. So, while I don't think it's quite dying yet, there are definitely a lot of people no longer using it.
I have 3 kids from 18 to 26. They've all independently ditched facebook in the last 18 months. The family communication is all done with Whatsapp and the kids social media platform seems to be Instagram.
nothing is funny in facebook groups apart from "hey watch me on cam show tonight "

A lot make their own apps. Also, tapatalk is good.
