Instagram seems to be doing some new crap lately (at least for me). One smaller one is that if you don’t have any new content in your feed when you go back to the iOS app, it’s just shuffle stuff from the last day or two.

The far more annoying one however is putting advertisements in your notifications. You get a pop up saying that there’s something new in your notifications, with a bag icon. If you check your notifications, it’s something like “Continue shopping with X”.

Sure Facebook, make me quit the last social media site I have. I already quit Twitter when Elon took over.

Edit Oh yeah, my “Reels” section can best be described as softcore porn with the clothes on. Just woman stretching in tight clothes with the camera right at their crotch.

This will draw in the advertisers, yes.

Saw that in another thread, but wanted to thank you for taking the time to screenshot rather than embeds.

I love Elon’s new threat that companies have to use their accounts or lose the handle. It just means that once a week or so @npr is going to post some lorium ipsum from some intern. It’s the most easily defeated threat.

Making every company login every 30 days means they can have some kind of metric they can give to advertisers. “We have over 300 million users a month!” or something. All under the threat of having someone control your account and spreading Qanon nonsense.

My wife, xenu bless her, still had her at Twitter account. She went through and started unfollowing a bunch of people so she had a better chance of seeing what she can in a day. So I imagine a number of people will be doing the same and seeing their followers tanking.

Do what I did when I quit MySpace decades ago. Break the terms of service until they delete your account. I just used softcore porn.

Instagram stopped showing how old posts were for me. I suspect it is to better hide how little content has been lately. They’ve been recycling the posts from my accounts I follow whenever there isn’t anything new, hoping I wouldn’t notice. But something being “12 hours old” (for example) was always a give away if I didn’t remember the post. I don’t know why else they would suddenly take away post age.
