- bamboozled 10y agoI hope you're not suggesting snapchat is some kind of healthy alternative ? ;)
- nojvek 10y agoI know a ton of Users who are not on Facebook. Yeah Facebook had a ton of users, I'm not sure how many of them are real and how engaged Facebook keeps them. So many ads you can slap in someone's face before they get put off.
- bradknowles 10y agoLots and lots of fake accounts, especially to play certain games, or set up as bots for other purpose. When I was active on Facebook, most people I knew had dozens of fake accounts.
- teaneedz 10y agoYep. What were App Annie's numbers? 35% of SC's daily average users in the U.S. don't use or can't be found on Facebook on any given day. 46% can't be reached on IG and 58% on Messenger. Snapchat is killing in the moment engaged posts. However, Snapchat, like Facebook, is fundamentally an ad tech platform too. SC will probably get worse along the way. Discover is click bait news and Stories have sneaky ads that everyone just skips. Maybe if Signal integrated a Bitmoji-like and filter experience, it would potentially become the best social experience.
- bradknowles 10y agoWhich is why Facebook bought Instagram. Keep in mind that inside of AOL, we thought of GNN as "AOL2000". Yeah, that worked out real good. ;)
- rendered_fat 10y agoRecently they're using snapchat? Check again. Instagram rolled out snapchat-comparable features in the last couple months. Im 23, but most of my friends have moved to instagram for stories.
