Anecdotal, but my Gen Z and his friends abhor and avoid FB/IG like the plague. From my perspective, FB is rapidly losing the interests of the younger generations and increasingly looking like a right-wing retirement community.
Do we have a reliable source of user data that shows the breakdown of each social media platform by age group?
- internetter 3y agoI agree FB is unused among GenZ, but in my anecdotal experience Instagram (and to a lesser extent, threads) continues to be relevant, alongside Snap and TikTok. Heck, let's run with TikTok for a second, ByteDance made 110 billion[0] this year. Does anybody use TikTok more than GenZ?

Edit: Also, IG seems more popular among girls, which could explain the opinion of your kid. I found an article from pew to corroborate this that also shows that IG is very much still relevant: https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/04/24/teens-and-social-media-key-findings-from-pew-research-center-surveys/ https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/04/24/teens-and...
