According to a Russian resident I follow on social media, over the last 2 years Russians improved their localized circuses: VK, mail.ru, etc. The guy says these are now somewhat close to the originals i.e. Facebook, Instagram, YouTube.
How is the Russian equivalent of Marvel doing? Is there a strong Manga production? How many AAA games does Russia produce? K-pop is pretty popular in Russia, how about that?
Internet/media has a very long tail, which Russia can't hope to replace.
