I mean, with any social media that feeds you content according to a non-disclosed algorithm, can you ever be sure what you’re looking at isn’t an ad? (If it’s not content from someone you know irl)
It’s basically all ads if it’s not someone you know. That’s why I’ve never understood why people have like 1000 friends on Facebook and Instagram. I don’t want anyone I don’t know in person appearing on my timeline on those sites. But meta forced it upon me anyways, so I just stopped using the sites.
Instagram are ads and influencer ads.
Nothing worth looking at, i’m just there for the near porn that gets thrown on there.
I love titties man x’D
People still use Instagram?
Insta-what?
I dropped all Meta products years ago and life has been so much better.
I’ve been considering joining Instagram just so I can follow specific celebrities.
I’ve never had an Instagram account. I’ve held out for a while.
There is nothing wrong with Instagram as a concept. The problem is Meta’s software and policies. If you are truly interested in following certain celebrities in it, I would recommend searching for FOSS projects that allow you to do that without Meta software or joining their eco-system.
Meta is the worst company, run by the worst person. It’s a shame too, because they’ve completely destroyed websites that used to bring us together across great distances. Now their sites are just a garbage fire. What a loss.
I haven’t complained about the extra ads added to my feed, but getting uninterrupted ads would definitely reduce the amount of time I am on it, for sure.
Serious question from someone who isn’t terribly technologically literate: if other websites adopt this feature, how will ad blockers adapt? For example, would they be able to fool the site into thinking that you’ve viewed the ad before you actually scroll down?

Cool story bro, but the only acceptable ad is an absence of one.
That’s a pretty misleading thumbnail
