Nearly half of American teenagers report being online 'constantly,' indicating a significant reliance on social media despite ongoing concerns about its impact on mental health.
The report highlights that YouTube remains the most popular platform among teenagers, with 90% using it, a slight decline from previous years, but it still showcases immense daily engagement.
While platforms like TikTok and Snapchat saw minor declines in use, they nonetheless retain substantial followings, suggesting a complex relationship between social media use and real-world interactions post-pandemic.
With nations like Australia enacting laws to limit social media access for minors, the implications of such regulations raise questions about their enforcement and potential isolation consequences for youth.
