There are only so many people on earth, and so many hours in the day. Is that starting to limit the growth of social media?

地球上只有那么多人，一天中有很多小時。 這是否開始限制社交媒體的增長？

Think about how much time you, and the people around you, spend on social networks every day. Ask yourself: how much more time could you possibly spend on Facebook, Snapchat, and Twitter without losing your job entirely? Probably not much.

考慮一下您和您周圍的人每天在社交網絡上花費多少時間。 問自己：在不完全丟掉工作的情況下，您還可以在Facebook，Snapchat和Twitter上花費多少時間？ 可能不多。

And in the developed world, at least, there aren’t many people left who aren’t already on social media, meaning there’s potentially not much room for growth.

至少在發達國家，沒有多少人尚未加入社交媒體，這意味著潛在的增長空間不大。

Here’s Kate Conger, writing for the New York Times:

這是凱特·康格(Kate Conger)為《紐約時報》撰稿：

Facebook revealed late last month that its number of users in the United States was flat from earlier this year and that its users in Europe had fallen over the same period, even though its total number of members had grown. And Twitter, which has struggled for years to increase interest in its platform, also said in late July that its monthly active users had decreased by one million from earlier this year. After those disclosures, share prices of both Facebook and Twitter tumbled.

Facebook上個月末透露，盡管其會員總數有所增長，但其在美國的用戶數量與今年初相比持平，而在歐洲的用戶數量同期有所下降。 多年來一直在努力增加對其平臺的興趣的Twitter，也在7月下旬表示，其每月活躍用戶比今年初減少了100萬。 這些披露之后，Facebook和Twitter的股價均下跌。

The declines and flattening growth raise questions about whether the social media companies have reached a saturation point in some markets, especially in developed countries.

下降和增長趨緩引發了有關社交媒體公司在某些市場(尤其是在發達國家)是否已達到飽和點的問題。

“And Alexander wept, for there were no more worlds to conquer.”

“亞歷山大哭了，因為沒有其他世界可以征服了。”

It?hardly seems like a problem, right? They’ve taken up so much human attention that there isn’t any left to capture!

似乎幾乎沒有問題，對吧？ 他們已經引起了人們的極大關注，以至于沒有任何可捕捉的東西！

But companies built around the assumption of perpetual growth don’t think that way, so you can bet these companies will dream up new ways to grab more attention from more people. You’ll have to decide if you want to give them that, or if they’ve had enough.

但是圍繞永久增長的假設建立的公司并不這么認為，因此您可以打賭這些公司將夢想新的方法來吸引更多人的關注。 您必須決定是否要給他們，或者他們是否受夠了。
