The app lets users post one photo per day to show their followers what they are doing in real time (or three if you’re lucky enough to post within the two-minute time frame).

 

Twitch is popular for its live-streamed gaming content.

From live art creation to cooking shows and educational content, Twitch lets creators connect with their audience in real-time. Users can use live chat, give donations, and subscribe to their favourite creators.

 

Threads is Instagram’s newest creation.

It allows users to share status updates, photos, and messages exclusively with selected friends. Its main purpose is to improve community communication.

 

Lemon8 is TikTok’s sister app.

It’s a combination of Instagram and Pinterest, encouraging users to share recipes, outfits, travel guides etc. using photo and video content. It hasn’t quite taken off… yet.

 

Discord originally gained popularity as a communication platform for gamers, but its potential extends far beyond the gaming community.

It combines voice calls, video calls, text messaging, and media and files. Communication can be private or take place in virtual communities called “servers”.
