Thoughts? Travelers looking elsewhere and for that not to happen. They want to push the cost over to the hosts

This is a reaction to their plummeting user base / customers. Air BnB has 6 times the users and platforms like Booking.com can acquire customers at a much lower acquisition cost. It will be a matter of time before their is a merger or acquisition, or they will die on the vine. Unfortunately, I was one of their first users but it’s only a matter of time.
