I mean, I’m sure there’s a small amount of real photos on IG but I don’t know why you’d post them there. All of the hashslag is about getting discovered. It’s like competitive spamming.

If you find IG wholesome you’ve been living under a rock. I find almost everything about IG offensive these days and it’s only going to get worse.

Yeah, I have to agree with the sibling comment - how are you coming across this content? I never see any of it. Al actual photos taken by actual people I know. As far as I’m aware it hasn’t really changed since I first used it years ago, though I’m sure there are a million features I ignore.

It sounds like you need to clear up your subscription list.

This has not been my experience, nor my wife's experience. Instagram shows more of what you click on, so it's entirely possible you are clicking on trash, so they're showing you more trash. From what I've seen, it does a pretty good job of reflecting your viewing habits.

Mine shows me literally everything that the people I follow have posted, but maybe that's because I don't follow a ton?

When I've scrolled through all the new posts there's a nice big green checkmark and it says "You're all caught up."

If something isn't what I want it to show me, I don't follow that. Works great, no weird view optimization algorithm as far as I can tell.

Sorry, should have clarified that I'm referring to Explore. I figured if someone is complaining about bad content on Instagram, it's in reference to content they don't have control over.
