    From first hand experience, Instagram reels took the crown with YT shorts in the second place.

    In my circle, I haven’t seen anyone use local social media apps

      That’s a bit sad, I was hoping to hear the Indian apps having traction.

        Not sure how this is feasible unless you’re certain your audience is going to use a VPN too. Seems like a risky way to lose views ie. your revenue stream.
