The pie chart illustrates the percentage of users across different age groups on different apps: Facebook, Twitter and Youtube.
Overall, it is clear that people aged 18-34 constituted the largest proportion of users across all three social media platforms. Twitter was particularly popular among younger adults, while Facebook and YouTube had a more balanced age distribution and attracted a higher percentage of older users aged 50 and above.
Starting with Facebook, users aged 35-49 formed the largest group, accounting for 30%, closely followed by those aged 18-34 at 29%. Older users were also relatively well represented, with 19% aged 50-64 and 8% aged 65 and over. By contrast, teenagers (10-17) made up a smaller proportion, at 14%, indicating that Facebook was less popular among the youngest users.
In terms of Twitter, the platform was dominated by younger adults. The 18-34 age group was by far the largest, representing 40% of users, while those aged 35-49 accounted for 29%. In contrast, older users were much less common, with only 18% in the 50-64 group and just 4% aged 65+, making Twitter the least popular platform among older people.
Looking finally at YouTube, the age distribution was more balanced than on Twitter. Users aged 35-49 formed the largest share at 29%, followed by the 18-34 group at 26%. Notably, YouTube had the highest proportion of users aged 50 and above, with 20% aged 50-64 and 10% aged 65+, while teenagers accounted for 15%.
