Social Media Behavior Report

Many Gen Z and Millennials have felt social media fatigue in the last couple years, despite socials being a huge part of their social lives and day-to-day entertainment. Well, more the entertainment than the social part. But, that said, you’d be surprised to see how young consumers’ perceptions on social media have changed this year. And of course, we ask how they’re engaging on the most popular platforms—all of them.
