The fall in use from 71% to 32% amongst 13-17-year-olds comes as Chinese rival TikTok sees engagement skyrocket to 67% – with 16% reporting ‘almost constant’ use.
“Although today’s teens do not use Facebook as extensively as teens in previous years, the platform still enjoys widespread usage among adults”, the report states.
Another platform seeing popularity amongst young people is YouTube, with 75% reporting daily visits- while Twitter – readying to battle Tech mogul Elon Musk over number of fake users – also saw a decline.
The report makes bad reading for Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg – as the company reported its first ever revenue loss in June.
