I had no idea that facebook owned instagram. What else does twitter own? Twitter is way more popular than facebook and will always be no matter what they own. I think twitter an instagram are equally popular though. Facebook's owners probably get most of their money from instagram.

Twitter isn't more popular than Facebook

Trending topics aren't even a thing people care about anymore

Twitter is more popular than facebook, especially for my age group, trending topics and breaking news. Facebook probably has more dead accounts since it was there first, but I'm pretty sure twitter has more active members than facebook. I believe instagram and twitter are equally as popular.

The only people I know who use facebook are old (over 30) and/or ghetto. Other people have accounts, but never or rarely use them. Before the live videos of people getting killed (which goes back to me saying mostly hood/ghetto people still frequently use fb) you'd rarely hear people and media articles talking about what happened on facebook lastnight, it's usually twitter and instagram.

Facebook is struggling in popularity and has been for years which is why they are trying to force people to join and are buying up and copying other sites.Idk if you looked at the stats or are just saying that, but most celebs are on instagram and twitter. People go where the celebs go.
You are really showing your age and stupidity with this post. Facebook is still more active and useful than ever before. All major organizations integrate their websites with Facebook. It has 1.4 billion ACTIVE users, instagram(which Facebook owns) has 300 million ACTIVE users. Twitter only has 320 million users. You are a damn dummy if you think nobody is really using Facebook :dahell:.

I swear you are like 18. Why don't you just listen to me.. I'm telling you what it is. Celebs don't mean anything except to young divas like you (still waiting for that pic btw)

You have your Facebook and twitter mixed up. Twitter is the one with engagement issues, I don't doubt that you and your ratchet friends are probably poppin on twitter but a few percentage of users are responsible for a large percentage of tweets, 5 countries are responsible for 50% of it's traffic its purely chronological news feed is bad design that they haven't fixed, as out of 1.3 billion accounts only 320 million are active and 391 million have 0 followers. Where as Facebook is popular in every country, everywhere. Yes, twitter is where the news breaks but that only gets so far engagement wise because of the fact that you don't need to be an active member of twitter to receive content from it so a lot of people use twitter as just a news source and not a social media tool. Far more users use twitter to receive content than they do to post actual content, that's why their engagement numbers are always so low and why Facebook, Instagram is always going to be on top and what Snapchat excels at in spades. Facebook started off as a site for college students so it was never designed for jits anyway. Contrary to popular belief Facebook isn't struggling in popularity in the slightest. Twitter is not even real competition for Facebook. Snapchat is, because Snapchat could engage the 14-19 group that facebook was hoping to convert but was not successful by comparison. FB and Twitter btw, are not far off in age, FB starting in 04 and twitter in 07. If you're 18 or 19 year old female in the US your goto social media is most likely snapchat, instagram and twitter in that order. But for the rest of the world...FB is still king.

That doesn't mean Twitter is popular

It has become a site for breaking news but it is by no means being used for social media and networking purposes like Insta, FB and Snapchat
Well it has an identity. That's good for long term sustainability. Snapchat doesn't really have a sustainable identity it's something that can be stolen like it has.

They should have waited until they had the filters with faces and stuff on there then b/c right now, instagram stories are useless.

Nah that's shyt part of the plan. Today is like when :heh: dropped Back to Back.

Instagram sitting back seeing what snap going to do.:sas1:

If they want to fight back they got them filters ready to drop like Drake had 3 peat on deck. :demonic:

Snapchat has good talent, they're going to find a way to keep their fans and if the other social media companies keep biting off them then that just cements their identity as an innovative platform.
