10 years of Twitter analysis: Most liked, retweeted, followed & more

May 24, 2018

This week marks the 10th anniversary of when Crimson Hexagon started collecting Twitter data for social analysis way back in 2008.

Below are some highlights and light-hearted insights from the last decade of the Twitter-sphere:

  • The most liked tweet came from US President Barack Obama on August 13, 2017 about racial equality. It had 4.58M likes
  • The most retweeted tweet came from Carter Wilkinson, asking for retweets to get a year’s supply of chicken nuggets. It spurred the popular hashtag #Nuggs4Carter
  • The most tweeted emoji is the ‘crying laughter face’, which is twice as popular as ‘love struck eyes’ which sits in second place
    • ‘crying laughter face’ emoji has been tweeted 12.4B times in the last decade
  • Katy Perry remains at the number one spot for most followers, with 110M
  • #LoveWins, following the marriage equality ruling in the USA in 2015, was the most popular social movement of the last decade, with a peak of 10M per week
