Shopping, social media, and banking: how does our internet use compare to the rest of Europe?

People in the west and north are the keenest of all Irish online users, with 90% using the internet to make purchases.

Irish people are very fond of using the likes of Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok, but users down south aren't as active as people in the rest of the country.

That is just one of the observations from Eurostat's analysis on internet usage across Europe, which found that Irish people are also among the biggest users of online shopping in the EU.
