None of My Friends Use FacebookInsights into why Facebook is losing teens
13 year old New York teen Ruby Karp posted a story earlier this week on Mashable explaining why she thinks Facebook is losing teens...
“By the time we could have Facebook we were already addicted to Instagram”.
“When I was 10, I wasn’t old enough to have a Facebook”
Facebook was this thing all our parents seem to have
“My only friend is, like, my grandma”.
All of our parents and parents’ friends are on Facebooks
“It’s not just the fact that I get messages like, Hello sweetie pie!”
My friends post photos that get me in trouble with those parents
“If my mom saw I was at a party with drinking, even if I wasn’t participating, I’d be dead.”
Facebook is also a big source of bullying
“Kids might comment something mean on a photo of you, or message you mean things”.
“people like the simple design better”.
Look at something like Twitter, where it’s four buttons
Facebook takes your interests based on what you’ve "liked" and put ads on your feed
“No offense, but when I’m looking through my News Feed I don’t really care about Pantene’s new product”.
Teens hate it when people try too hard; it pushes them away. It’s like if my mom told me not to do something — I immediately need to do it. When she forces something on me, I really don’t want to do it.
Facebook has been trying too hard
