Instagram - not what it used to be

3.0 3 months ago

Comments: Instagram is no longer what it used to be. It is now too corporate and filled with ads for me to enjoy like I used to, and lacks the personal touch. That said, I still use it daily so it clearly is a good service.

Pros:

Creating posts and stories is well-designed and lets you share your life in a nice way to those who follow you. The messaging function is easy to use and well-made

Cons:

Instagram has seemingly changed from a personal social media network, to something more akin to TikTok and youtube. My feed used to be filled with personal posts from those I follow and my friends, and now it is large businesses and influencers, along with a lot of advertisements. The reels feature is designed to suck you in to watching videos with little value, but that keep you on the platform. It is great from the perspective of Instagram, but it sucks the personal feel out of the platform.

Comments: My experience with instagram is extra ordinary and for my company i am using this software from past 1 year for social media managemen and brand awareness. By creating some trending topics reels we got very traffic on our social media page and got some business as well. This is very good social media platform.

I like the reels part of the instagram where if you create reels on trending songs with good visual effect your reels will be easily go viral and you will get more profile views and visits to the company instagram handle. This is i liked most

Cons:

Instagram can add some more inbuilt templates for editing the reels which are not much effective in rhe current version

100% Necessary Social Media Platform

5.0 7 months ago

Comments: Overall I've spent 10s of thousands of dollars to advertise to my target market because organic content has very little reach to my followers

Pros:

I like that I can use this platform as a way to share valuable and entertaining videos and images to my target my customers who are using the app for consuming content related to the hunting industry.

Cons:

I don't like how it doesn't show as much of my organic content to my followers like it used to. It's now a pay to play platform

Helpful Media Service

5.0 8 months ago

Pros:

I have been building my business with Instagram as one of the main drivers for the past 7 years. It is constantly adding new features to connect with my community and edit photographs. Sharing new Art & meeting new people is easy with the ability to post multiple photographs at once. I would recommend Instagram to anyone looking to build their name and meet people who love what they create.

Cons:

If there would be any feature I would add to Instagram it is the ability to schedule posts.

THANKS IG!!

5.0 4 months ago

Comments: There are so many great IG features; from posting and saving, to messenging, connecting, and tagging. Lately, my favorite feature is the ability to quickly share/receive recipes and links by typing a comment. The IG reels are a highlight for me and the fact they can be quickly shared makes it all the better. I now have a wonderful collection of recipes at my fingertips--For free!
Thanks IG!

Pros:

Instagram is an excellent platform for sharing and saving snaps shots of my life. I like to call it Journaling My Life. Although I do not do a lot of scrolling, I love that My IG Profile is like a scrapbook of memories I cherish.

Cons:

I miss the built in repost feature on IG that allowed me to share friends' memories/posts to my profile page. I am not a fan of stories so the repost to stories limits me for reposting.

Social Media Handling

5.0 last year

Comments: I have been using Instagram since High School, and the journey I must say is so much fun and engaging. Reels, Filters, Editing tools and diverse content it provide makes Instagram fun and engaging flatform for users like me who is seeking enjoyable social media experience.
I personally feel Instagram has helped me connect with my friends more, as its convenient sharing different fun videos, memes, etc. of our interest.

Pros:

On the top notch, Instagram is fun to use. Personally, I like using Instagram as it has great visual aesthetics, interactive elements such as stories and reels, engagement features such as direct messages, comments, foster engagement and connection, hashtag challenges, IGTV and Live Videos. I also love Instagram's integration with other apps such as Facebook as I believe this factor has brought convenience for users like myself, who likes sharing content, memes, reels with friends and family seamlessly.

Cons:

Well I love using Instagram on a daily basis, however if I have to mention any then definitely it has to be the fact Instagram is primarily designed for mobile app. And someone like me, who works will have a limitation managing their accounts on a computer. Where, social media like Facebook is convenient be it in mobile or computer version.

Good, but addictive

5.0 8 months ago

Comments: While Instagram used to be my go-to app for staying in touch, it now feels more alienating and time-consuming. It's still a good app, but it’s important to use it mindfully and take breaks when needed.

Pros:

Instagram is a fantastic way to stay connected with friends and family. The platform's simple, user-friendly design makes it easy to share photos and videos. The wide range of filters and editing tools can make any photo look amazing.

Cons:

Instagram can be quite addictive. The constant stream of posts and stories can be overwhelming, leading to endless scrolling. The algorithm often shows more ads and content from strangers than from actual friends, making it feel less personal. I definitely feel like I am being alienated.
