Anecdotal evidence, but in my group of friends, the only platform where people, me included, post regurlaly is bereal and I suppose it's because it's more like a group chat when you only watch what your friends post. We are older than teens though.

I don't understand this thing because of its limited format. Like... You can't even express yourself much like you would with text posts or regular video. You can just state "well here is what I have right here" Not to mention that from what I understand, it pretty much incentivizes you to post your FACE online which is a no-no.
But I don't know anyone to be in a group chat with! That's why I use social media 😭
Honestly, this is an actual problem. I had friendships formed from proximity before I found my current group of friends online, and I wasn't as happy as I am now when I was limited to friends in my proximity.
No one's posting on BeReal
No one's even heard of BeReal. That could be part of the problem there.
The only reason I check "social media" is to hear about local events, so to see ads I actually want to see.
