Kids and trendy young people are on tiktok and Instagram and do short video clip based social media.

The people who grew up with the internet being a place where you type and read things to be social, are here and places like here.

I think folk just prefer what they know, like if you grew up with loud and bright video clips being the normal way to interact online, you'd probably not want to switch over to reading and typing- which probably also feels like more effort to these people than just performing for a camera.

Same likely goes for us text based social media people but in reverse.

I think a lot of older people have jobs and real-life hobbies. When you're a kid trapped in the suburbs with no neighbors to play with, you can't drive, you can't walk to anything, the idea of being terminally online is very appealing. I'm still growing out of it in my 30s
