From PC Mag: Facebook's popularity is dropping among US teenagers aged from 13 to 17. According to a new poll, a large majority are instead using YouTube, Instagram and Snapchat, and doing so more frequently.
Only about half, at 51 percent, say they use Facebook, according to the survey from the Pew Research Center, which was published on Thursday.
That's a drop from Pew's last survey, conducted in 2014 and 2015, which found that Facebook was the most popular social media platform among US teenagers. At the time, 71 percent were using the service.
A mere three years later, and kids these days are ditching Facebook in favor for Instagram and Snapchat, which two-thirds say they now use.
Pew's last survey didn't look at the popularity of YouTube back in 2014-2015, but its latest findings indicate that 85 percent of all teens visit the video streaming service.
