New York, New york 10th Septermber 2026 - Social media is changing quickly. For years, Snapchat helped define how teens communicate online: camera-first messaging, disappearing content, Stories, private conversations, and quick visual interactions. But in 2026, a new generation of social apps is taking a different approach. Instead of building everything around public feeds, follower counts, and endless scrolling, newer platforms are experimenting with private friend networks, AI-powered creativity, temporary content, interactive messaging, and new ways to make digital conversations feel more immediate. That raises an obvious question: What are the best new social apps for teens in 2026, and what are the best alternatives to Snapchat? There isn't one answer for everyone. Snapchat remains a major social platform, while Instagram, TikTok, Discord, BeReal and other services each offer different experiences.

You may not know Asmongold, but millions of people do. Born Zachariah “Zack” Hoyt in 1990, Asmongold is a Twitch streamer, YouTuber, and gaming commentator who built his enormous following playing and discussing World of Warcraft.

Hoyt has increasingly become a prominent voice on political and social issues, particularly among young men and gamers, and has emerged as an influential figure in the online right. The far-right provocateur Nick Fuentes has embraced Asmongold as an ally. “Him and I are on the same team and he’s the GOAT,” Fuentes has said, describing Hoyt as a fellow traveler in the online right. Hoyt has also been unusually explicit about his intentions. In a report examining his comments about migrants in the United Kingdom, Media Matters for America wrote that “Hoyt has a clear agenda,” quoting him as saying: “I want to make one thing extremely clear. My goal with talking about this stuff is to radicalize people as much as possible. I show this and I portray this stuff in the most extreme and negative way so I can make people angry and they’ll be willing to follow the solutions that

CEO Jaspar Carmichael-Jack apologized in a LinkedIn post and said the company’s new slogan is “Be More Human.” Artisan Artisan, the San Francisco AI startup behind the “Stop Hiring Humans” billboards that startled Bay Area commuters and helped make the company a viral name in tech says it was retiring its slogan. Artisan CEO Jaspar Carmichael-Jack said Thursday on LinkedIn that the company “officially retired the slogan after two years,” adding that “Artisan is a pro-human company.” The reversal marks a softer public turn for a company that built much of its early name recognition around one of the bluntest messages in the AI boom.  Artisan sells Ava, an AI business development representative that automates parts of sales, leads, messaging and booking meetings.
