Does anybody actually still use Yelp?
Have you ever left a review or even looked up a business on there?
I think most people just look at reviews on Google.
Discussion
no, used to be helpful but then everyone was gaming it and I lost interest, feels like spyware. Don’t know if it is. Probably no worse than g00gle
Frequently. I prefer it to Google.
Are you of Gen X age range?
I have a theory that Gen Xers are the biggest users of Yelp.
Yep
I'm not sure exactly why I default to it...probably just old habits. I used to travel constantly so relied on it for good food recs.
Old habits is my theory. People who watched the Internet develop as young adults became brand loyal to the early websites like Yelp. Because Yelp used to be the place for reviews. The Internet has moved past it but Gen X is kinda stubborn. 🤣
