Can we start the igram backlash yet?

on public transportation in nyc, people are inevitably looking at either igram or fbook

I've said it elsewhere, but the new Instagram location feature is the best.
Here's the Reno Walmart, one of the nearest box stores to #burningman.

What's new about the location feature?
― calstars, Sunday, 6 September 2015 23:27 (eight years ago) link
You couldn't search it before.
You could click a location if you saw it on a pic, but you couldn't query it.

way too many ads now :/
― Spottie, Monday, 1 February 2016 18:25 (eight years ago) link
I haven't seen a single one yet

what? how
― Spottie, Monday, 1 February 2016 21:28 (eight years ago) link
I see sponsored post ads, but some of the folks I follow on Instagram are basically posting ads anyway (but they are ones I want to see)-- just for DC go-go gigs, New Orleans brass ones, afrobeat/afropop dj nights, etc.
― curmudgeon, Monday, 1 February 2016 21:42 (eight years ago) link
I get a ton of ads now. never used to until a couple months back maybe.
kind of getting done with instagram i think.
― Cornelius Pardew (jim in glasgow), Monday, 1 February 2016 21:49 (eight years ago) link
and there's only so many times I can share photos of my cat, weird graffiti, sunset over the ocean, or some mountains.
― Cornelius Pardew (jim in glasgow), Monday, 1 February 2016 21:50 (eight years ago) link
I've never seen an ad on the 'stagram
― glandular lansbury (sic), Monday, 1 February 2016 21:50 (eight years ago) link
hmm. wonder what the reason behind some of us getting ads and others not. im on android.

these are all in my feed within the last 12 hourshttp://i63.tinypic.com/e9ck1w.jpg

maybe a function of how many followers or posts or followers you have. I have under 10 of all of those. iPhone.

Sidestepping from the advert discussion, a thriller series is playing uniquely on Instagram this month via 15-second video posts each day, plus accompanying photos... http://www.shield5.com

i have iPhone and a few hundred posts/followers/following.

Plenty of adverts here, but they're not too obnoxious yet.
Instagram advertising is a straightforward option when making Facebook adverts and sponsored/boosted posts nowadays. Tried it once so far as an experiment, but Instagram still works well organically, so we haven't found the need yet.

Today's snap is tomorrow's Instagram post.
― Any Given User (Eazy), Thursday, 30 June 2016 16:03 (seven years ago) link
I think the bigger scale of Snapchat's images doesn't get noted enough. A snap photo has to be cropped to fit on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and so on, keeping a Snap photo from being interchangeable on other platforms.
― Any Given User (Eazy), Thursday, 30 June 2016 16:04 (seven years ago) link
the number of photos shared on average by each Instagram user fell
Weird wording there. When I think of "share", I think of what you do on Facebook with someone else's content or retweeting something on Twitter.
People "post" their photos on Instagram, and I get the idea what the writer is saying. There's a share button, but I rarely, rarely ever see it used by anyone.
― pplains, Thursday, 30 June 2016 16:32 (seven years ago) link
Under 21 folks I know seem to mostly just use snapchat.

Music geeks keep posting pics and video clips of gigs on Instagram as well as via other social media outlets

Anyone know if you can upload to instagram from your laptop? I've found a few software packages on google but thought I'd check if any of you have used them first.

The new non-chronologic algorithm combined with an explosion of ads in my feed (every 2-3 pix?) pretty much turned me off of IG.
― Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Sunday, 3 July 2016 01:45 (seven years ago) link
I usually scroll down until I hit one that I've already seen.
So now with the new algorithm, I hardly spend any time at all on Instagram!

That article also links to an article saying that facebook users have been sharing less of their personal lives, which is an interesting development that accords with my observations -- people have gotten a lot more selective inasmuch as there's no longer any novelty to just saying whatever the fuck you're doing/eating/thinking right now.

Had a recent FB request from *takes a deep breath* the father of the mother of my daughter's best friend, the kid's maternal grandfather.

instagram is gd imo. like it is something you read when you are in a queue to access memes + screenshotted details of interesting internet information + then just cool world glimpses. abbott wrote something in another thread abt the virtue of smartphones being how you can foto the weird shit that stumbles into yr view while you are out of the house, + instagram is the repository for this at the moment i think.
i get kinda hazy abt [platform] is dying !!! hysteria bc it is like ... like websites are dying ... which they are .. but also they are not ... meaningfully dying ... i can read a website ... lots of websites ... instagram is fine ... it's fine. you know

i finally get instagram. it's so much less pressure than twitter and even facebook. there's very little talking! no need to craft a joke! you just look! and like! that's it! but i now am connecting with friends that i never connected with before on FB or tworter. yes tworter.

Instagram suggestions are the worst - I follow one friend who's a local MMA fighter, so the suggestions are non-stop UFC and wrestling memes.Then I guess I know some vegans because today it was all horrifying PETA ad stuff with people shooting animals for fur and dead lambs. WTF.
