Or under the age of 25. Nobody is voluntarily signing up for Instagram in the modern era.
Ok this will make me sound 8,000 years old, but what social network are the kids these days using? TikTok exists, but that isn’t really a personal blogging site like Facebook, Myspace, Instagram, etc. What is the equivalent for Facebook for present day high school and college students? Is everyone just on discord?
Nobody does personal blogging. Well, except a few specific primates doing so on Xitter. And I’ve also seen some people with at least half a brain getting a domain and writing blogs there in hopes someone clicks on their link.
You’re reading blog to literally. Think how people traditionally use Facebook/Myspace, posting regular updates, photos from their life, etc, intended primarily for friends and family to see. What’s the equivalent of that for kids today?
I mean, outside of posting a few pics of college events, I don’t think most of my friends post pictures to Instagram. Hell, some of them like me don’t even have Instagram/major social media anymore.
Before I left Insta, I didn’t even bother to follow friends/irl people I know because I’d rather talk to them in person that shit’s dumb, I really only looked at memes, silly reels/vids, and fanart of stuff. Like 90% of Gen Z is only on social media for content and lols, not to update each other on their lives
I talk to my friends in person. We share pictures of shit we do in life to each other in group chats, but 95% of what we do was done as a group anyway. We don’t really feel the need to let randos/online friends know every thing we’re doing all the time.

They might as well be demanding my Spotify Playlist.
Yeah, that sounds insane. Everyone knows those platforms are selling your data. I don’t think most young people are that stupid.
Yall are making playlists? I just add all songs to the liked and just hit skip until I find songs I’m in the mood for.
As someone under 25, this is bullshit. I’m the only person my age I know that doesn’t use Instagram
i think you’re severely overestimating how discerning most zoomers are about social media

I don’t think that people do that very much any more, since the medium has changed.
People don’t really do things like make blog posts as much as they used to.

None. It is no longer “cool” to post your entire life onto the internet. Source: I am a kid.

you have no idea how popular insta is if you think this is the case
You have no idea how many people still use dial-up internet. shrug
It’s still pigeonholed to a generational cohort.
