Business Marketing with Nika

Recently I came across some reports and found apps that are loved/hated according to particular countries.
If you are in marketing, you may find it helpful:
β€οΈ Loved ones are:
1. TikTok
2. Threads
3. Facebook
4. Instagram
5. Likee
I also observe most hated not only by countries but also by generations.
I wrote the whole newsletter article about it (see comments). π
Which App do you like the most and which do you dislike?
I like Twitter (or LI) and totally misunderstood BeReal :D

Will be thankful for subscribing to my newsletter. ππ
Loved your newsletter!
As for my 2 cents, I used to be a Twitter gal back when it was still called that, but I'd say YouTube is my favorite now. The one that just isn't my cup of tea is TikTok. π

@bratislava_velickovic Thank you so much! :) I am trying to be more visible on YT as I consider it to be.. like it has potential from all of those platforms :D
Wow. Suprised to see TikTok at the top. I'd expect it to be YouTube

@nathancovey I think it is because YT is classified as app for media/entertainment (rather than social media). But it is definitely huge. :)

TikTok is definitely the most loved and hated social app right now. Teens are obsessed but parents are freaked out about the privacy issues and addictive nature. Instagram is losing its cool factor with Gen Z. Twitter is a total dumpster fire since the Musk takeover. Facebook is for Boomers at this point. LinkedIn is still going strong for B2B marketing and recruiting though. And of course, everyone still sliding into those DMs π

@maxwellbennettcrawford do you have any favourite app from social media? :)
I prefer Twitter over Reddit because Reddit is not very user-friendly for new users trying to post

@bensongao what did you try to post? I lately have seen many people succeeding on Reddit .
TikTok is definitely the most loved by Gen Z. It's so addicting and the algorithm is crazy good at showing you content you like. But Facebook seems to be the most hated these days, especially by younger people. It's seen as outdated and full of misinformation.
Insta is love and I don't like twitter

@isis_clemente Why Twitter is so hated? Because of Musk? Wouldn't be enough to not follow him?
Love: Tiktok
Hate: Likee

@geeta_thakuryy TBH, have never tried Likee. What is wrong with that?
I don't like TikTok.
Instagram is definitely the most loved, but also the most hated. People are addicted to it but complain about how fake and toxic it is. TikTok is a close second - super engaging but major time suck. Twitter used to be cool but now it's just Elon's plaything. Facebook is for boomers. LinkedIn is actually pretty useful for networking and content these days. Curious what others think?

@isabellaharris Isabella, thanks for your point of view. I agree that LI is good (and it is not included in the infographic at all) :/ When it comes to Twitter, I use it more than IG or TikTok β Elon is not a hurdle for me. Still somehow believe that can be useful in the future.
I mostly use facebook

@kinza_yuirsa Where are you from if I can know? :)
TikTok and Instagram are super loved, while Facebook and Twitter often get the most hate!

@janak_patel56 I do not know why Twitter is so much hated. Yeah, there is Elon, but think the platform itself is good.
Iβm not the biggest fan of TK, but I absolutely agree that itβs super engaging. :)

@winston_appsallset Do you have account there?
Twitter is definitely both loved and hated. The amount of negativity and fighting on there is exhausting. But I still use it to stay updated on breaking news and follow accounts I'm interested in. Instagram seems universally loved for keeping up with friends' photos. Snapchat gets hated on but the younger crowd still loves it. And TikTok is taking over but also starting to get some hate. I think every social app eventually experiences a love/hate cycle as it grows!
