      It’s kind of like Instagram, but it picks a random moment during the day for you to take a picture. ( When you’re awake normally ).

      When the app goes off you have 1 minute to take a picture. If you miss it you can’t post a picture anymore.

      It’s a bit of a reaction against the perfect pictures you see everywhere and people having amazing lives all the time. You’ll see pictures in your feed from friends/family just chilling in front of tv. Sometimes it’ll be nice timing ( oh wow! Just when we’re at <beautiful place> and other times it’ll be when you’re having a movie night with your SO.

      I say friends/family because AFAIK you need to be friends with somebody to able to see their posts.

      during covid people used that, you got notification and need to take a pic of yourself and what you are doing at the moment (not from phine gallery) it was meant to show how staged instagram with everyone living their best life. it was a good idea but people stopped using that once the hype went down

      The app that pings you at a random point in the day to show what you are “really doing with life”

    The most recent reddit spike is definitely just people adding the word to google searches to make the search actually useful instead of SEO slop

    sorta interesting though this is just Google searches, and it’s funny to have YouTube as a social media but not Tumblr

    Is pinterest getting more popular or is it that people have spent the last couple years searching for “who uses pinterest” or “how to remove pinterest from search results?”

      No idea how, but it seems to be capturing the youth market, at least amongst my kids’ peers. Maybe as an alternative to tiktok/YT as those are more likely to be blocked/restricted by parents?

      it’s only that high because 2020 is when search engines became visibly enshittified even to normies and people started specifically looking for human written things

    Reddit is on the decline. We need more people to join the Fediverse.

    Are you telling me that I live in a world where LINKEDIN AND PINTEREST are the most successful SOCIAL MEDIA sites?

    Edit, missed the “relative” part, so most consistent sites? Still weird.

      Linkedin serves a professional purpose so I can see why it’d be the most consistently searched. Like even if people don’t actively use it, at least part its purpose is for hiring managers to be able to search a person and have their professional persona pop up. It’s the most accessible way to find a version of a person online that’s not restricted or under a pseudonym.

      That being said, people that actively use it for anything other than keeping their resume up to date or job search/hiring are usually nutjobs.

      Pinterest is somehow getting traction with the kids, I have no idea how or why but they’re all on it. I honestly thought it died along with the likes of Flickr.

    In case of things like YouTube I assume that everyone just knows it and directly types youtube.com or opens the app instead of googling for it.
    Or maybe I’m wrong and nobody types urls directly into the browser anymore?

      Honestly most of the time I’ve watched over someone’s shoulder while they go to a website, I’ve watched them google the site (sometimes including .com) and then click on the top result. URLs are just asking too much of people ig
