When the first social media sites were born, they pretty much changed everyone’s lives. One of the first ‘true’ social media sites was created in 1997, SixDegrees.com, on which you could establish lists of connections, set up a profile page, and exchange messages throughout networks. And while back in the day not everybody was able to have a profile and talk with friends without meeting them face to face, fast forward to now, 25 years later, it has turned into the new normal. We can call whoever we want, no matter where they are; we can also see them and basically meet them despite being on opposite sides of the world. Insane, huh?
With that being said, there’s a Twitter profile dedicated to crazy, confusing and completely bizarre interactions that people have shared while communicating online.

It is not a surprise that people, especially younger generations, tend to text a lot. Moreover, a report shows that teens are communicating more through social media or text messages rather than meeting in person.
It’s hardly surprising that kids tend to use social media more frequently than they did in the past: 70% report doing so frequently, which is more than double the percentage (34%) from 2012.

Now, let’s look at some essential texting statistics. According to 99firms.com, 61% have been texting much more since the beginning of the pandemic. In fact, the average personal screen time has risen for 75% of respondents. For example, between 2019 and 2021, the average American consumer’s daily screen time climbed by 49.4%.
Additionally, a survey that included 4,000 participants found that Millennials and Gen Z prefer texting to calling their friends and family on a regular basis. As evidenced by texting statistics, two-thirds of people between the ages of 18 and 34 carry their phones with them even when using the restroom.
