Their logo is literally a camera so what’s the point of the app then? Though I’ve heard it’s absolutely overrun with AI slob anyway just like Facebook itself. ‘Social’ networks just can’t help themselves becoming the dead internet theory, can they?
Sharing photos was the point of the app 6 years ago. Now the point is to either meticulously modify yout online image to look like the coolest person on the world - or just spampost memes/porn/disinformation to get followers and brand deals

The point is to return vale to the shareholders
In case of Meta, this not actually true.
They have a dual layer share structure where Zuck holds special class share that provide him full control even if he doesn't have a majority of "ownership class" shares.
I mean, I am sure Zuck wants "line go up", but we are at point where it's more like his personal fiefdom and he can tell shareholders to bugger off and let him burn $46 Billion on his weird metaverse fetish.

Instagram was such a great platform in the early days when it was for the most part used by photographers. I lost my interest in it when they started forcing videos instead. Even photographers needed to make videos of still photos in order to get any visibility.
