Millennials from Belgium's Dutch-speaking region of Flanders made less use of online video sharing services such as YouTube in 2019 compared to the previous year. This was concluded based on survey results that looked into online activities from individuals in Belgium and its three regions: Dutch-speaking Flanders, French-language Wallonia and the Brussels-Capital Region (the city of Brussels with its surrounding villages). Penetration among 25-to-34-year-olds decreased by four percentage points between 2018 and 2019, whereas penetration stayed the same for 16-to-24-year-olds. Opposed to this, the use of online video sharing services increased significantly among older age groups with the largest increase found among those aged 45 to 54.
