Top 30 Social Media Trends

From Hyper-Realistic Tattoo Filters to Digital Wedding Stickers

— July 17, 2021 — Social Media
Social media plays a pivotal role in many consumers' lives and the July 2021 social media trends underscore how these platforms have changed to meet consumer needs.

One notable update in the world of virtual connection comes in the form of a new cannabis-specific social network. Called 'SmokeSesh.Life,' the new video sharing platform provides a safe and inclusive space for enthusiasts, brands, and other adults to connect over their love of the plant.

Another intriguing example from the July 2021 social media trends is a new social media experience called Tikky Town. The interactive experience is focused on capturing content that can be shared on social media and for this reason, it's called a "content playground for big kids." Located in the UK, the TikTok-inspired funhouse boasts over 30 vibrant environments for fans to interact with.
