    Most countries except for the US

    They still exist in the USA as well. They just aren’t popular.

      Guess that depends on where? Where I live there’s a mall on like every damn town, and there are two within like 10min from my house.

        I meant not popular as in they don’t have as much foot traffic as they did a few decades ago. Many exist, but the number of malls that don’t feel “dead” is pretty low in my experience.

          Yup. We have like 4 within 30 min driving distance (assuming we’re talking indoor malls), and they all feel pretty empty whenever I go. Granted, I don’t go very often, but it definitely seems a lot less popular than even 10 years ago.
