Social Media in Germany

OF COURSE Germans use social media in German.
Did you expect anything else?!?

lol - yeah, Germans are just the same as everyone else, they use Facebook, Instagram, Youtube etc.  Majority will speak in mother-tongue with friends from Germany in my expereince, but those under 40 are quite comfortable switching to English, and will consume also English language media

Well it seems you answered your own question, so why did you ask in the first place? Amongst themselves Germans will almost always use German but if they are communicating with a wide range of people from other countries they might often use English in certain situations. Depends on the people and circumstances.
