Instagram is the social network most used daily by the youth of the Basque Autonomous Community (79.2%) and especially by women (84.9%). The two fastest-growing social networks have been Tik Tok and BeReal. Most women aged 15 to 19 use it daily. Those who have come down are Youtube, X (formerly Twitter), Snapchat and Twicht. Facebook's predominant use has declined.
According to the report, as in previous surveys, once again, “very few young people” have acknowledged using social networks to link (Tinder, Meetic, Grinder, etc.). The percentage of people using three or more social networks daily has increased (72% in 2023). 61.7% of young people follow some youtuber, influencer or gamer.
Content Generator
One in ten young people generates content on the Internet (9.5%). These are mostly photographs or video games.
Men, above all, create content related to photos and video games. Women are the ones that have to do with life. The most active group in content generation is that of men aged 15 to 19 years.

97.9% of young people use Spanish in social networks. Most also use English (62.4%). Four out of ten young people use Euskera (40.7%). 13.1 per cent of young people use another language, especially those born abroad.
