> Part of the reason Instagram has surged in popularity lately is because it's generally real humans posting the content rather than endless automated shitposts (I'm not saying they don't exist, but it's certainly more difficult to implement than it is on Facebook).

We are clearly not looking at the same subset of Instagram. I don't know anybody that actually uses it to post real content; it's just an endless feed of meme shitposting to laugh at.

Hey that was a pretty cool read.

Interesting to see what the kids are up to.

I am far too old and uncool to have any idea that that kind of thing existed. I'm more in the barstool sports/onion/fuckjerry/animalsdoingthings wheelhouse. Pure stupid entertainment, hearkening back to a simpler internet. Pepperidge Farms remembers...
