04 Facebook - ever-dwindling appeal, only really useful for MORBID CURIOSITY reasons these days
08 Twitter - probably the first app I open when I'm on my phone. Great for knowing what to get outraged about and probably the first place you hear about anything, but can be draining. Also great for porn
06 Instagram - stories are fun but I do think it's destroying society
?? Snapchat - do not use. It's definitely not dead @Apocalypt Flyer you're just old x x
09 TikTok - current FAVE. always something fun waiting for you on your fyp. I limit my time on it to when I'm in bed as it's too distracting otherwise
07 YouTube - yeah good yeah
08 Reddit - LOVE Reddit. So much useful/interesting stuff to be discovered/Drag Race rumours
?? LinkedIn - do not use
-1 Tumblr - for getting rid of the porn
?? Pinterest - do not use
01 Parler - I actually have an account on this and they make it really hard to delete :D

05 Facebook - It's a waste of time but I can get obsessed with reading Fox News comments and other right wing bullshit. Also nice to see what my extended family and high school acquaintances are up to
08 Twitter
11 Instagram - Easily my favorite. Especially stories. I think they should get rid of like counts though, since it's not great for a lot of people (especially teenagers) self esteem
07 Snapchat - meh. Only good for sending naked pictures
06 TikTok - Haven't really got into it one day but I know it'll take up all my time once I do.
07 YouTube - I really only use it for music videos and Geography Now these days
10 Reddit - Great, as long as you're on the correct Subreddits. I've never actually posted though
XX LinkedIn - I should use it but I don't
XX Tumblr - never used it
XX Pinterest - never used it

It's getting crushed between TikTok and Instagram, IMO. I believe the pandemic-related "growth spurt" in 2020 is going to ease off again. But e.g. I don't see a single sport trying to push a strategy for snap anymore.

But maybe my use-case is limited - and maybe I'm old :disco:

The youngsters are ALL OVER IT still i believe (going by my 15yo nephew and occasional Grindr chats only)
 
I don't think YouTube even IS a social media platform - not the way we would all use it anyway - but it was on ALL THE LISTS

I don't use enough of them to rate but I don't mind Facebook as much nowadays as it's sort of crossed over the terribleness bridge and is more a handy place for groups and interests and events. Maybe it depends on your friend list but life story statuses just don't seem to be a thing anymore.

Instagram is hate hate and am addicted to in equal measure. I want to delete it but then moan about losing all my photos, even though they're all on my phone. I think it's the absolute worst thing for my self esteem, and consequently I get anxious when I think about how much worse it must be for young people.

Twitter is fine when I remember to check.
 
More of a RANK than a RATE

Instagram - I enjoy scrolling through here. The DISCOVER PAGE needs to DIE though, and facebook seem eager to make it as user UNFRIENDLY as possible.
Twitter - sometimes DEAD FUNNY, sometimes just DEPRESSING. My muted terms list is CREAKING under its own weight.
YouTube - I don't really consider this a social app because I don't use it that way, but it is GOOD.
Facebook - only use for MESSENGER these days.
Reddit - Good for NICHE INTERESTS and THIRST TRAPS.
Snapchat - I stopped using this YEARS AGO, and finally deleted my account for good last year. Had some nice 'MEMORIES' on there that I saved :)
Tumblr - I have FOND MEMORIES of hours spent reblogging pictures of Mozza and Sky Ferreira. Dead now, of course, like my love for Mozza, and Sky's work ethic.
TikTok - I downloaded the app, but it was like watching High School Musical with ATTENTION DEFICIT DISORDER. Hand me the Ritalin.
Pinterest - ???
LinkedIn - I hate those CORPORATE HAIKUS.

Speaking of TikTok, one of my best friends wants to be tiktok famous, and he keeps texting me when he posts new stuff, but they’re just not very funny and I feel like a fraud for saying they’re funny. But discouraging him seems more mean

TikTok seems to be the easiest one to go viral on... and plenty of the ones that blow up are shit. It'll probably happen for him eventually :hostage:

@OutSynk what's so good about YouTube Premium? No ads?
Click to expand...
Yes! I sometimes have the free one on at work because I can't be bothered to log in and omg. The last time a certain Youtuber was having an emosh moment when one of those hellish ads crashed in.

Is it really TWELVE POUNDS A MONTH?
 
It's 8,49€ here. Also on the phone you can have the app playing in the background which you can't do with the free one.

05 Facebook - I mostly spend it rolling my eyes at what old relatives have shared, but I do like it for news, not so serious news, meme groups and time wasting videos

07 Twitter - Again good for news (and quite hot often amateur porn where Tumblr left off...). LOT'S of showing off on there which I try to avoid though, which brings me to...

04 Instagram - I've really fallen out with Instagram recently. I don't post much myself anymore because who cares that I've gone to a pub? It's full of boring white muscle gays and I don't care too much for my real life friends' content either. Oh a field? Groundbreaking.

01 Snapchat - DON'T GET IT. I once put a filter on myself and that was fun but I couldn't DO ANYTHING afterwards?

05 TikTok - I have it but rarely use it outside of videos others link up. I do quite like vine-humour and wasting time watching Karen's freak out though

09 YouTube - it's YouTube... Pretty necessary these days. I like to watch videos before bed about geography or murders. Yes YouTube premium is great but too expensive. (I recently ended the free trial and I miss it :()

08 Reddit - I don't ever go on it myself, only when something's linked to it, or I Google something and end up on it. It really is quite a good resource for ANYTHING you can't seem to find on mainstream internet though

-1 LinkedIn - the absolute NADIR of the internet. I can't. It's not about professional life any more, just absolute SHIT pictures of a man in army uniform on his phone with an overlong caption about how his wife's just given birth while was serving and it's all so obviously fake. I get several notifications during the day and they're 99% crap - yes I've muted then but that doesn't extinguish my need to read them :evil:

XX Tumblr - don't use. Never really got it, except when there was porn on it

XX Pinterest - don't use

XX Parler - don't use
 
06 Facebook - it's 02 for the actual thing but 10 for the facebook messenger
10 Twitter - necessity, great to know instantly what's going on while anonymous
05 Instagram - rarely use it, mostly to perve on beautiful people like Quim Gutiérrez
00 Snapchat - are filters still a thing?
08 TikTok - entertaining but extremely addictive got it uninstalled
10 YouTube - another necessity
05 Reddit - can be funny
-10 LinkedIn - skill endorsements badges and congratulations are euphemisms for shit you're in hell
00 Tumblr - hasn't this been shut down for all the free porn?
-20 Pinterest - could be something but the requirement to register when you get there via imagesearch is repulsive
00 Parler - literally never heard of it

05 Facebook - totally irrelevant nowadays but back in 2007 it was kind of necessary fun.
06 Twitter - only use it for porn.
09 Instagram - I like seeing beautiful photos of buildings and nature... oh and of my friends.
01 Snapchat - was fun for a second.
00 TikTok - don’t know her
10 YouTube - Essential. Not really a social platform though.
00 Reddit - don’t know her
00 LinkedIn - annoying shit but quite handy these days when you want to see what people look like.
00 Tumblr - stopped using it when the porn disappeared.
00 Pinterest - I don’t get it
00 Parler - I don’t know her
 
LinkedIn is abhorrant.
Congratulate Alex on his 5 year work anniversary.
WHO THE FUCK CARES

The inspirational messages…UGH
At least facebook knows it is basic as fuck but LinkedIn pretends it is something more high brow which it IS NOT
 
10 Facebook - HATERZ. This bitch is still best for keeping up with family. And the Private Groups are all sorts of messy :disco: No character limit.
06 Twitter - Turns people into cunts quicker than any other SM. Cool premise though.
02 Instagram - Made for thirsty ratchet thots. I hate the comments section.
00 Snapchat - Gimmick.
00 TikTok - I'm too old for this brand of Social Media. But I do anticipate getting it eventually when it takes over the CHARTS.
10 YouTube - Almost as important as oxygen.
07 Reddit - JUST started getting into this. It's almost TOO big. But I do enjoy the discussions.
05 LinkedIn - It's just...there. But it makes me feel important.
00 Tumblr - This is still a thing?
02 Pinterest - Useful, but ANNOYING af to use. I actively avoid all search results that link to it.
00 Parler - Who?
