Google is no longer the most popular platform in the world. The search engine site has been dethroned by the social media app TikTok, according to web security and performance company Cloudflare.
Per Cloudflare, which tracks data using its Cloudflare Radar, TikTok became the most popular site within a matter of months this year.
Last year, the viral video app known as Douyin in China ranked No. 7 on Cloudflare’s list. The company believes its increasing popularity was seemingly due to the pandemic.
WhatsApp entered Cloudflare’s top 10 this year — bumping Instagram off the list. Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Apple, Netflix, Amazon, and YouTube remained the most popular domains across the Internet from 2020 to 2021.
The most popular artist on the Internet’s most popular site is Megan Thee Stallion, according to TikTok’s 2021 Music Report.
The app claims songs such as “Cognac Queen,” “Thot Shit,” and “Cry Baby” helped the H-town Hottie stay in the number one spot for the second straight year.
