! IMPORTANT NOTES ON COMPARING DATA The findings published in this report use the latest data available at the time of production. This may include revised figures for historical data points that were not available when we produced previous reports in the Global Digital Reports series. From time to time, we may also change the data sources that we use to inform specific data points, and we may also change how we calculate certain values. Similarly, our data partners may change the ways in which they source, calculate, or report the data that they share with us. As a result, findings published in this report may not correlate with findings published in our previous reports, especially where suchfindingsrepresentchangeovertime(e.g.annual growth). Where we report figures for change over time, such figures will use the latest available data, so we recommend using the values published in this report, rather than trying to recalculate such values using data from previous reports. Wherever we’re aware of the potential for historical mismatches, we’ve included a note on comparability in the footnotes of each relevant slide. Please read these advisories carefully to understand how data sourcesorcalculationshavechangedsinceprevious reports, and beware of making any comparisons with historical data. Where we report values for change over time as “[N/A]”, the most recent data do not correlate with the equivalent data point(s) published in our previous reports, so we strongly advise readers not to compare the associated current figures with the equivalents published in previous reports. In particular, the social media platforms featured in this report regularly revise the figures that they report for advertising reach, and this may result in the latest numbers appearing to be lower than the values for the same data points published in previous reports in this series. However, these source data revisions do not necessarily imply any change in the overall active use of these platforms, and should not be interpreted as such. Furthermore, in addition to changes in data sources and calculations, please note that social media user numbers may not represent unique individuals. This is because some individuals may manage multiple social media accounts, and because some social media accounts may represent ‘non-human’ entities (e.g. businesses, animals, music bands, etc.). As a result, the figures we publish for social media users may exceed the figures that we publish for total population or for internet users. This may seem counter-intuitive,butsuchdifferencesdonotrepresent mistakes. For more information, please read our notes on data variance, mismatches, and curiosities: https://datareportal.com/notes-on-data.

Last year, we emerged from the pandemic into a new online landscape. IRL and URL life were already impossibly entangled, and much was on the horizon: metaverses in which to while away our days, NFTs to deck the walls of digital houses, crypto wallets for paying for goods and services in virtual malls. But this year, what was cracked has now shattered into many segmented realities. An accurate vision of the future is now less like looking through a telescope, more like looking through a kaleidoscope: it’s coming through as several diverse fragments, not one single perspective. In this fragmented space, online factions are carving out their own customs, niches, and territories – their own marginal worlds that have the power to become the mainstream. On a social level, gone are the days of feeds clustered around friends and family – here are the days of For You Pages guided by individual interests. On a cultural level, gone is the universal watercooler chat dictated by shared popular culture – today’s agenda is set by ever-more niche and transient corners of the internet. And on a personal level, identities are more layered and fluid than ever before, more like an ‘avatar du jour’ than a static understanding of self. In the eighth issue of our annual report Think Forward, we unpick the complex and ever-changing web of digital culture and behaviour, and explore the role brands can play in reflecting and shaping it.

Meltwater Insights Our 2023 Marketing Trends guide provides a glimpse at what the next generation of digital marketing has to offer. Global Overview Thanks in part to Gen-Z’s love of subtitles, closed-captions are now a regular sight in short-form video content across the internet. Social platforms are continuing to invest in those and other accessibility features, but there’s still a long way to go. A 2022 Business Disability Forum survey of disabled consumers found that 42% of respondents couldn’t complete an online purchase because of inaccessible websites or apps. Short-form video is here to stay. And though what qualifies as “short” varies, easily- digestible video content remains a priority for social platforms. Marketers: Now is the time to embrace short-form video and experiment with length and new platform features, especially as social commerce gains even more traction in 2023. The death of third-party cookies is imminent. Until then, marketers need to spend 2023 overhauling their performance metrics. Expect widespread shifts to gathering first- party data and using contextual marketing. Understanding who your audience is, where they are active online, and how they interact with your brand across the web is going to be an important part of strategy building in 2023 and beyond.

! CORRECTIONS IN SOCIAL MEDIA USER NUMBERS Over recent months, the data sources that we use to calculate social media user numbers in each country have made significant revisions to their underlying numbers. As a result, we are currently unable to provide data for the change in social media users over time. Because of these changes, readers should not compare social media user numbers published in this report with similar figures published in previous reports in the Global Digital Reports series, because any such comparisons will deliver inaccurate data and misleading trends. Furthermore, please note that the social media user numbers published in this report may appear to be significantly lower than the figures published in previous reports in this series. However, any such differences are the result of “corrections” in source data published by social media platforms, and our analysis of various data sources confirms that there has been no discernible drop in social media use in any of the countries that we track. As a result, readers should not interpret any negative differences between the numbers published in this report versus previous reports as a decline in social media use, because these differences are due to corrections in source methodologies and data reporting approaches, and do not representachangeinactualusernumbers.Please read our comprehensive notes on data for more details: https://datareportal.com/notes-on-data

Prior to our Digital 2021 reports, we included data sourced from social media platforms’ self-service advertising tools in our calculations of internet user numbers, but we no longer include this data in our internet user figures. This is because the user numbers reported by social media platforms are typically based on active user accounts, and may not represent unique individuals. For example, one person may maintain more than one active presence (account) on the same social media platform. Similarly, some accounts may represent ‘non-human’ entities, including: pets and animals; historical figures; businesses, causes, groups, and organisations; places of interest; etc. As a result, the figures we report for social media users may exceed internet user numbers. However, while this may seem counter-intuitive or surprising, such instances do not represent errors in the data or in our reporting. Rather, these differences may indicate delays in the reporting of internet user numbers, or they may indicate higher instances of individuals managing multiple social media accounts, or ‘non-human’ social media accounts. If you have any questions about specific data points in these reports, or if you’d like to offer your organisation’s data for consideration in future reports, please email our reports team: reports@kepios.com. footnotes of each relevant chart, but please use caution when comparing data from different reports, because changes to research samples, base data, research methodologies, and approaches to reporting may mean that values are not comparable. Furthermore, due to the differing data collection and treatment methodologies, and the different periods during which data have been collected, there may be significant differences in the reported metrics for similar data points throughout this report. For example, data from surveys often varies over time, even if that data has been collected by the same organisation using the same approach in each wave of their research. In particular, reports of internet user numbers vary considerably between different sources and over time. In part, this is because there are significant challenges associated with collecting, analysing, and publishing internet user data on a regular basis, not least because research into public internet use necessitates the use of face-to-face surveys. Different organisations may also adopt different approaches to sampling the population for research into internet use, and variations in areas such as the age range of the survey population, or the balance between urban and rural respondents, may play an important role in determining eventual findings. Note that COVID-19 has limited internet user research. Note: This page is a summary of our comprehensive notes on data variance, potential mismatches, and curiosities, which you can read in full at https://datareportal.com/notes-on-data. This report features data from a wide variety of different sources, including market research agencies, internet and social media companies, governments, public bodies, news media, and private individuals, as well as extrapolations and analysis of that data. Wherever possible, we’ve prioritised data sources that provide broader geographical coverage, in order to minimise potential variations between data points, and to offer more reliable comparison across countries. However, where we believe that standalone metrics provide a more reliable reference, we use such standalone numbers to ensure more accurate reporting. Please note that some data points may only be available for a limited selection of countries, so we may not be able to report the same data in all reports. From time to time, we may also change the source(s) that we use to inform specific data points. As a result, some figures may appear to change in unexpected ways from one report to another. Wherever we’re aware of these changes, we include details in the NOTES ON DATA VARIANCE, MISMATCHES, AND CURIOSITIES

  • 5. ! IMPORTANT NOTES ON COMPARING DATA The findings published in this report use the latest data available at the time of production. This may include revised figures for historical data points that were not available when we produced previous reports in the Global Digital Reports series. From time to time, we may also change the data sources that we use to inform specific data points, and we may also change how we calculate certain values. Similarly, our data partners may change the ways in which they source, calculate, or report the data that they share with us. As a result, findings published in this report may not correlate with findings published in our previous reports, especially where suchfindingsrepresentchangeovertime(e.g.annual growth). Where we report figures for change over time, such figures will use the latest available data, so we recommend using the values published in this report, rather than trying to recalculate such values using data from previous reports. Wherever we’re aware of the potential for historical mismatches, we’ve included a note on comparability in the footnotes of each relevant slide. Please read these advisories carefully to understand how data sourcesorcalculationshavechangedsinceprevious reports, and beware of making any comparisons with historical data. Where we report values for change over time as “[N/A]”, the most recent data do not correlate with the equivalent data point(s) published in our previous reports, so we strongly advise readers not to compare the associated current figures with the equivalents published in previous reports. In particular, the social media platforms featured in this report regularly revise the figures that they report for advertising reach, and this may result in the latest numbers appearing to be lower than the values for the same data points published in previous reports in this series. However, these source data revisions do not necessarily imply any change in the overall active use of these platforms, and should not be interpreted as such. Furthermore, in addition to changes in data sources and calculations, please note that social media user numbers may not represent unique individuals. This is because some individuals may manage multiple social media accounts, and because some social media accounts may represent ‘non-human’ entities (e.g. businesses, animals, music bands, etc.). As a result, the figures we publish for social media users may exceed the figures that we publish for total population or for internet users. This may seem counter-intuitive,butsuchdifferencesdonotrepresent mistakes. For more information, please read our notes on data variance, mismatches, and curiosities: https://datareportal.com/notes-on-data.

  • 14. Last year, we emerged from the pandemic into a new online landscape. IRL and URL life were already impossibly entangled, and much was on the horizon: metaverses in which to while away our days, NFTs to deck the walls of digital houses, crypto wallets for paying for goods and services in virtual malls. But this year, what was cracked has now shattered into many segmented realities. An accurate vision of the future is now less like looking through a telescope, more like looking through a kaleidoscope: it’s coming through as several diverse fragments, not one single perspective. In this fragmented space, online factions are carving out their own customs, niches, and territories – their own marginal worlds that have the power to become the mainstream. On a social level, gone are the days of feeds clustered around friends and family – here are the days of For You Pages guided by individual interests. On a cultural level, gone is the universal watercooler chat dictated by shared popular culture – today’s agenda is set by ever-more niche and transient corners of the internet. And on a personal level, identities are more layered and fluid than ever before, more like an ‘avatar du jour’ than a static understanding of self. In the eighth issue of our annual report Think Forward, we unpick the complex and ever-changing web of digital culture and behaviour, and explore the role brands can play in reflecting and shaping it.

  • 15. Meltwater Insights Our 2023 Marketing Trends guide provides a glimpse at what the next generation of digital marketing has to offer. Global Overview Thanks in part to Gen-Z’s love of subtitles, closed-captions are now a regular sight in short-form video content across the internet. Social platforms are continuing to invest in those and other accessibility features, but there’s still a long way to go. A 2022 Business Disability Forum survey of disabled consumers found that 42% of respondents couldn’t complete an online purchase because of inaccessible websites or apps. Short-form video is here to stay. And though what qualifies as “short” varies, easily- digestible video content remains a priority for social platforms. Marketers: Now is the time to embrace short-form video and experiment with length and new platform features, especially as social commerce gains even more traction in 2023. The death of third-party cookies is imminent. Until then, marketers need to spend 2023 overhauling their performance metrics. Expect widespread shifts to gathering first- party data and using contextual marketing. Understanding who your audience is, where they are active online, and how they interact with your brand across the web is going to be an important part of strategy building in 2023 and beyond.

  • 53. ! CORRECTIONS IN SOCIAL MEDIA USER NUMBERS Over recent months, the data sources that we use to calculate social media user numbers in each country have made significant revisions to their underlying numbers. As a result, we are currently unable to provide data for the change in social media users over time. Because of these changes, readers should not compare social media user numbers published in this report with similar figures published in previous reports in the Global Digital Reports series, because any such comparisons will deliver inaccurate data and misleading trends. Furthermore, please note that the social media user numbers published in this report may appear to be significantly lower than the figures published in previous reports in this series. However, any such differences are the result of “corrections” in source data published by social media platforms, and our analysis of various data sources confirms that there has been no discernible drop in social media use in any of the countries that we track. As a result, readers should not interpret any negative differences between the numbers published in this report versus previous reports as a decline in social media use, because these differences are due to corrections in source methodologies and data reporting approaches, and do not representachangeinactualusernumbers.Please read our comprehensive notes on data for more details: https://datareportal.com/notes-on-data

  • 126. Prior to our Digital 2021 reports, we included data sourced from social media platforms’ self-service advertising tools in our calculations of internet user numbers, but we no longer include this data in our internet user figures. This is because the user numbers reported by social media platforms are typically based on active user accounts, and may not represent unique individuals. For example, one person may maintain more than one active presence (account) on the same social media platform. Similarly, some accounts may represent ‘non-human’ entities, including: pets and animals; historical figures; businesses, causes, groups, and organisations; places of interest; etc. As a result, the figures we report for social media users may exceed internet user numbers. However, while this may seem counter-intuitive or surprising, such instances do not represent errors in the data or in our reporting. Rather, these differences may indicate delays in the reporting of internet user numbers, or they may indicate higher instances of individuals managing multiple social media accounts, or ‘non-human’ social media accounts. If you have any questions about specific data points in these reports, or if you’d like to offer your organisation’s data for consideration in future reports, please email our reports team: [email protected]. footnotes of each relevant chart, but please use caution when comparing data from different reports, because changes to research samples, base data, research methodologies, and approaches to reporting may mean that values are not comparable. Furthermore, due to the differing data collection and treatment methodologies, and the different periods during which data have been collected, there may be significant differences in the reported metrics for similar data points throughout this report. For example, data from surveys often varies over time, even if that data has been collected by the same organisation using the same approach in each wave of their research. In particular, reports of internet user numbers vary considerably between different sources and over time. In part, this is because there are significant challenges associated with collecting, analysing, and publishing internet user data on a regular basis, not least because research into public internet use necessitates the use of face-to-face surveys. Different organisations may also adopt different approaches to sampling the population for research into internet use, and variations in areas such as the age range of the survey population, or the balance between urban and rural respondents, may play an important role in determining eventual findings. Note that COVID-19 has limited internet user research. Note: This page is a summary of our comprehensive notes on data variance, potential mismatches, and curiosities, which you can read in full at https://datareportal.com/notes-on-data. This report features data from a wide variety of different sources, including market research agencies, internet and social media companies, governments, public bodies, news media, and private individuals, as well as extrapolations and analysis of that data. Wherever possible, we’ve prioritised data sources that provide broader geographical coverage, in order to minimise potential variations between data points, and to offer more reliable comparison across countries. However, where we believe that standalone metrics provide a more reliable reference, we use such standalone numbers to ensure more accurate reporting. Please note that some data points may only be available for a limited selection of countries, so we may not be able to report the same data in all reports. From time to time, we may also change the source(s) that we use to inform specific data points. As a result, some figures may appear to change in unexpected ways from one report to another. Wherever we’re aware of these changes, we include details in the NOTES ON DATA VARIANCE, MISMATCHES, AND CURIOSITIES
