> What are the motivations for people to be daily activate users these days? Honestly just curious. It's useful so you stay connected with friends who don't necessarily live next to you. That's the motivation for at least monthly active, maybe daily if you've got a lot going on. Also, when I was in college (2014-2018), Facebook was extra useful because it was the default way of inviting many people to an event, and there were also really active pages like "free and for sale." It was also a directory for classmates/housemates to contact you if they didn't already have your number, which was an occasional bacon-saver. Nowadays FB Messenger is still ubiquitous enough that at least you can invite ~20 people via a group chat without having to deal with SMS (cause one guy will always have Android). Of course, you could easily use it to kill time scrolling through random stuff from strangers and possibly go overboard to the point of it being mentally impactful, same how daily video game addiction is different from playing an hour per week. I'm also not going to ignore how social media is more addictive than a lot of other things.
