This quarter, we wrote serious and lighthearted stories; Our audience loved the relationship conversations, humour, and our 2025 fashion predictions, so let’s talk about the ones that stole the show!
Things Nigerian Parents Say and What They Actually Mean – This one? A crowd favourite. From “Do your mates have two heads?” to “Is this how you will do in your husband's house?”, this article had everyone laughing and maybe even side-eyeing their parents.
Gen-Z Style Forecast for 2025: What’s In or Gone? – Fashion lovers and trend-watchers had a field day with this one. From the In’s of 2025 that we’re clinging to, to the trends we’re collectively throwing away, the debates were entertaining, to say the least.
Q1 proved that our audience loves fun, relatable, and insightful storytelling.

Maintaining our listenership this quarter was a tough nut to crack, but its challenges like these that push us to be better.
Q1 2025 reminded us that we need to do more to keep our community tuned in to our conversations, and best believe, we will.
Note: We're comparing Q1 2025 polls to Q4 2024 because polls weren't part of our content mix in Q1 2024, so this is our first year-on-year snapshot since we started running them!
The job search conversation had our community in a chokehold this quarter. We talked about the hunt, the hustle, and the soul-crushing rejection emails, because let’s be real, job-seeking in 2025 is a full-time job on its own.
And let’s not forget the poll we put out. Whew! Turns out most of you guys have sent 50 - 200+ applications.
If there was ever proof that the job market is a shared struggle, our Job Interview Bingo was it! You guys checked off every single box, yes, even the dreaded “Interviewer looks unimpressed” one.
If there’s one thing this past quarter showed us, it’s that our IG community has thoughts, and trust, we were here for them all. From career moves to navigating Nigerian parents to the realities of dating on a budget, our community’s responses to our polls weren’t just votes; they were real conversations, experiences, and feelings laid bare.
Every time we asked, our community answered. Loudly. Honestly. Sometimes even chaotically (and we love a little chaos). It wasn’t just engagement; it was community in action.
Here are some of our most popular polls and some hilarious responses:
So here’s to our IG fam for showing up, sharing, and making every poll feel like a group chat with the most interesting people on the internet.
This past quarter, our Threads community didn’t just grow; it connected. We found new voices, fresh perspectives, and kindred spirits who make every conversation richer.
We had multiple "Wait, are we thriends now?" moments.
Here are a few lovely interactions we had this quarter:
We’re building something special here, and if you’ve ever liked, replied, or just lurked with intention, you’re part of it. Here’s to deeper convos, stronger bonds, and a community that just gets it.
