This one article is mostly about NYC (and forward looking) but it’s part of a larger tapestry of “Airbnb is dead”, “nobody uses Airbnb anymore” articles and social content (particularly on TikTok) that might lead you to think Airbnb and its hosts are in freefall.
The problem is that the reality looks to be totally different. Airbnb keeps putting up record quarters, and while the economics are changing for hosts (many markets are definitely becoming saturated) the platform and the model appear to not have actually lost much if any strength over the 12-18 months that this has been a popular narrative.
