meta: Meta releases 2021 ‘Year-in-Review’: All things trending on Facebook and Instagram in India – Times of India
Meta today released its annual ‘Year-in-review’ to share the top trending topics on Facebook and Instagram for 2021. For 2021, Covid and health, Sports, and an assortment of Cultural moments and topics captured the minds of Indians across Facebook and Instagram.
Prayer’, ‘Oxygen’ and ‘Hospital’ were the top trending topics within this theme, as India grappled with the second wave of Covid and people reached out to each other for support on our platforms. This then graduated to various ‘Vaccine’ and vaccination-related topics, as people looked to immunise themselves from the virus. A surprising trend though was ‘Flaxseed’, which a lot of people shared and discussed because of its perceived benefits.
2021 will always be marked as the year when India created history at the Olympics. With the highest ever tally of medals at the ‘Tokyo Olympics’ and ‘Paralympics Games’, the country celebrated its athletes with ‘Gold medal’ becoming a key topic of discussion. Test cricket made a big comeback, especially as India made it to the finals of the inaugural ‘ICC World Test Championship’. Also, ‘Women’s One Day International cricket’ has been a trending topic, as cricketers like Mithali Raj, Smriti Mandhana, and Jhulan Goswami make India proud with their performances on the field.
