Katy1966 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 I have been reading that Facebook is more for the older people and the younger generations stay away. Do you find that to be true? I'm mostly on Facebook to catch up with family and friends and see their children grow up. Otherwise, it's mostly a place where people share memes it seems like...or to look down on others for their opinions on how things should be done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of my time on Facebook is spent talking to older friends or family anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomad Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Contrarily to the popularly held belief that the most active demography on facebook is 45-55 years of age, it has been discovered, younger people consist of large active user groups on facebook., With the popularity of Reels, I see more young people joining the platform.

Kyng Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I suspect there is some truth to this... my guess is that most young people now have parents who are on it, and therefore, they consider it "uncool". I believe the younger generation mostly hangs out on Snapchat or Instagram and the like (although, fortunately for Meta - the company that owns Facebook - they also own Instagram 😛 ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZandraJoi Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 I think it's more of a preference than an age thing. Maybe the older generation prefers it due to the ease of use versus other Social Media Platforms. I don't do any Social Media nowadays. I prefer simple email lol However, I do know of many who like the One-stop shopping of Facebook. They can keep in contact with all members of their family in one area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
