Hate it or love it, the selfie trend doesn’t seem to be going anywhere, not anytime soon. Each and every day, more than 1 million selfies are shared via Facebook, Whatsapp, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, Pinterest, and so on.

Every generation takes selfies, from people born in the early 2000s to people born way back in the 1940s. The Pew Research Center ran a poll with the aim of finding out which generation takes the most selfies? The results are listed below.

Unsurprisingly, the Pew Research Center found that millennials share the most selfies. 55% of Millennials, 24% of Gen X, 9% of Baby Boomers, and 4% of Silents share selfies on social media sites.

Also unsurprisingly, Facebook is the social network were most selfies are posted. Facebook accounts for 48% of the selfies uploaded by various individuals. Whatsapp scores 27%, Twitter 9%, Instagram 5%, and Snapchat 2%.
