I'm considerably more surprised by Twitter leading Instagram in daily visitors, considering how Instagram has way more active users. After looking at this list, I feel like I'm the only guy who still visits yahoo.com daily. It's my go to news aggregator.

That graphic specially says “website visits” aka desktop web or mobile web.

Instagram for sure gets the vast majority of its traffic via the App. That’s the reason TikTok isn’t on the list, for example.

Yep. Saw that after I posted. Makes more sense to me now. The numbers weren't adding up. Instagram, for example, is worth multitudes more than Twitter, and that has to be for a reason.

And that's why Instagram was a "distant third" for me in regards to the google metric. It's a bit more like Facebook in that people enter the ecosystem and then browse. TikTok is similar, but it's so huge at this point.

I'm trying to think of sites that I think a large percentage of people intentionally use google to navigate. The three that come to mind immediately are "(search term) twitter", (search term) reddit", and "(search term) wiki/wikipedia". I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, but those three, I assume, have an unusually high percentage of their traffic driven by search engines as opposed to in-ecosystem searches.
