Social media
I wonder how many social media options are out there currently in 2018? I quickly counted how many I am registered on and got to 10. Obviously, I am not using all them as often as some others. Some I have not visited in ages and may not have the passwords anymore. Others may seem active as they are set up to automatically draw posts from another of my sites. My 10 are listed in the picture above.
In 2015 approximately 2 billion people used social media sites. More than 2.6 billion are expected to use such sites this year. The increase in the use of mobile devices has a big influence on this growth.
In searching for information about social media, I came across an article claiming to list fifty social media sites of which I need to take note. Fifty?!? How many are there out there?
Of course, everyone has their own preferences. I'm a common man and have prefered Facebook, as most people do. Everyone I know is on it and it has evolved quite rapidly, keeping my interest. WhatsApp seems to have taken over the world of communication and some businesses use more WhatsApp than email.
Do you have a preference? Please share it with us and tell us why you prefer it.
Are you using some little-known or brand new site? Please tell us about it.
For social media main networks I use are:
Although I see Facebook becoming more and more irrelevant and see myself using it less in the future. Main reason is Facebook is becoming more restrictive about what you can post especially when it comes to cryptocurrency. I am also concerned with privacy issues and how Facebook uses my data.
For Messaging these are my main apps:
I still use Google+ together with those listed above by Colin, Facebook has lost it's appeal even though still use it.
Twitter for news and quick posting, best place for news.
Medium for exceptional quality and in-depth information on occasion.
You Tube, unfortunately you lose time, find some interesting topics and debates.
Instagram not so often.
Pinterest on a rare occasion.
Steemit has become my main source of social interaction, good balance of photography, quality content and great reading matter.
Don't know Telegram at all. And everyone is on WhatsApp. That helps.
Thank you.
Wonder where Facebook will end up. They keep evolving.
I use WhatsApp as it's keeps things simple and works. My Kryptonia account is @ianstevenson
Thank you!
I'm okay with WhatsApp just because everyone is on it. I used to like Facebook and IG, but reduced my visit to these sites since I joined Steemit. I am not usually a social media person, I posted last on my page Facebook in 2016, but I do visit daily to comment and see other people's post. I feel, if I am not making money with my social profile then, it doesn't really worth how much I spend on data monthly. That was why I quickly glued to Steemit
Steemit is a definite gamechanger for me too. Thank you @ammyluv.
By the way, i did not receive the 30 sup reward yesterday. I did all the task but it is not credited in my krypto account. Im looking forward for your favorable reply. Thanks...
Coins you get from doing Tasks are put On Hold for 14 days so they don't show as Available. If you did not get them at all send mail to [email protected].
Thank you for the advise!
Hi @rubelynmacion. I gifted you the coin. Don't know what went wrong but hopefully it is now sorted. Thank you for doing the task.
Yes thank you very much!
Thank you!
preference is steemit and youtube. My little known site is dtube, which is not yet quite up to the task, but I'm hoping. Also use a lot of telegram. Upvote courtesy of @Jerry32 at kryptonia.

I think we will all be on Facebook for as long as the majority of people are on it. Just easier to go to where they are already.
i use viber
Thank you
