I noticed this among friends and co-workers who are mostly under 30. They all have Facebook but switched to Instagram or Snapchat. Their Facebook accounts are stagnant save for the few likes and staying connected with older family who joined FB to keep in touch.

The big reason seems to be the fact hat FB was too public. People were all in each other business and it gets ugly. Snap and IG are more direct, more one-on-one so to speak (at least my perception, I don't use social) giving people more privacy to post and like things they may not want mom/dad/grandma to see.
