The answer is in the article. Young people do.

How old are you?

No one I know uses it, but that makes sense to me. I'm internet-old now.

I'm 36 and using it a few times a week, mostly with my much younger siblings in their early 20's. Another family friend who has a daughter got her first smartphone recently, and snapchat was one of the first installs on that device. I used it as well pretty heavily when it first came out to keep in touch with family and friends.

Weirdly enough I have an interview with Snap in a few weeks as well. Despite the drop that tech stocks have seen everywhere the last year or so I think it's still a strong company to try and join.

Right, I wasn't implying that I should be in the demographic or anything of the sort. I don't use TikTok either, none of my friends do, but I've heard it mentioned a zillion times (in the media, IRL conversations, etc) in the past year. Same with other big social platforms: reddit, youtube, discord, facebook, instagram, telegram, and so on. Snapchat? nada, I've heard nothing. So it comes as a surprise to me to hear that it's alive and growing, which prompted my question.

I would put Snapchat above discord and telegram for general public awareness, especially in main stream media coverage
