Youtube has been at the top of the game since it launched back in 2005. The platform completely revolutionized “home videos’ and allowed people the creative freedom to create whatever they wanted and the ability to share it with the world.

Instagram has grown to be the star of Facebook social media apps. But Facebook still performs well. It might not be the social network of choice for teenagers, but it can still claim dominance of the social market, with over 2.32 billion active users at the end of 2018, with Instagram having 1 billion. Nearly 66% of those Facebook users log in to their Facebook accounts daily, with Facebook claiming 1.52 billion daily active users as at the end of December 2018.

Instagram now gives the public a whole playground to explore and be creative in so many different ways.
