Using social media to search for mobility information Young people also had a chance to share their views on how likely it is that they will use each of the social media platforms for search of mobility-related information. All in all, German young people are most likely to use Instagram and YouTube in their search for mobility-related information, and about half of them are also likely to use TikTok. All other social media platforms are very marginal in German youth (see Figure 25).
