Social media.
Why: In the 2020s social media shaped how people communicated, formed culture, and spread information — from TikTok trends and short-video entertainment to hashtag-driven movements (e.g., #BlackLivesMatter), pandemic-era social life and misinformation, and influencer/creator economies. Email remained important for formal/work communication but wasn’t the cultural focal point; mailed letters and telephone calls were increasingly niche. Social media’s formats, memes, and platform-driven dynamics are most likely to be seen as emblematic of the decade.
