Future of Facebook is dimmed
93% of the teens said they used YouTube, compared to 63% who said they used TikTok, followed by smaller shares for Snapchat (60%), Instagram (59%) and Facebook (33%), respectively. The group found that while use of Snapchat and Instagram has grown since its 2015 report, use of Facebook and X (formerly Twitter) has declined; just 33% of teens said they used Facebook this year, compared to 71% in 2015. Twitter use fell from 33% in 2015 to just 20% this year. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/many-us-teens-almost-constantly-170037450.html Do you use Facebook daily?
I mean Facebook is pretty much unusable at this point. Platform quality became trash quite literally. I can't even see updates from friends and connections. All it shows is fucking stupid videos and ads. No wonder no one's using it. It must be on a life support internally?
Welcome to the company lifestyle. New generation wants new things, whatever is extremely famous is uncool for them. Next gen will use some other apps like BeReal instead of snap etc. The more famous and available you are, the sooner you become uncool and boring.
Fb still owns WhatsApp, messenger, and instagram which is hands down the biggest social media platform. When people stop using that only then will fb be dead
At the moment whatsapp and IG are life savers for meta.
I moved to blind
I don’t even remember the last time I used Faceberg for anything besides selling shit on Marketplace. They really should just spin Marketplace off into its own platform at this point. It’s a way better experience than the scammer and spambot infested wasteland Craigslist has become nowadays.
Question: why do you have numbers only from 2015 and today. Social media has come long long way since.
That’s from Pew research.
You’d be surprised. I got better deals on FB marketplace than most other places for Black Friday. I shop on FB marketplace more than you’d ever know. You just need to stay away from scamsters.
the stock x3 this year so your analysis doesnt matter
Only boomers use Facebook and millennials who are stuck in the 2010s. The way social media is consumed is different now. Who cares about what your family and friends do. That content is irrelevant now. I too have moved away from IG and to tiktok cuz it’s less of a popularity contest and just content that I enjoy
You are wrong... Facebook used to be interesting when it was about friends and family, but suddenly became a public space about companies and news.
Agreed with @amzn. The early days of Facebook were actually quite fun before they pivoted to media, recommendations and creators. Now it is like a purposeless monstrosity which has no idea what it is anymore.
