2. TikTok is ranked because of communication , social influence/trends, usability. TikTok is my second most utilized platform because of how easy it is to keep scrolling (can be a curse).

TikTok is the earliest platform to create trends and make certain products/brands get more recognition with advertising and paid commission linked with the TikTok Shop. 

3. Snapchat is ranked because group-based communication , communication in real time, and photo storage/memories. I've grown to utilizing this platform less and less as I get older, however I still do use it to this day. I use the communication feature to send snaps/streaks to my friends and family. I have a bunch of old high school memories backed up in my Snapchat memories and I love to look back at those times every now and then.

4. YouTube is ranked because social influence/trends, usability , increase skill-based knowledge.

5. Pinterest is ranked because usability, freedom of creativity, social influence/trends. I use Pinterest every now and then when I feel like I need inspiration for a specific project or makeup look I am trying to recreate. The various rabbit holes that Pinterest can lead you down can be interesting at times.
