I recently uploaded my vacation photos to flickr, my first time using it. I have to say - very nice site / app. I uploaded 900+ full resolution photos for free. Way better than insta or facebook, two apps I use so seldom that they are not even on my phone. I will likely pay for the pro version, not bc I need it, but bc I would be happy to support the company. |

I use Flickr a lot.
But about twice per year, I think, "I should give Instagram a try again." Each time I try, it just comes across as loud and garish. And even if it weren't loud and garish, you can't really get a good look at high-res photos on Instagram. It takes me about 30 seconds to realize, "Oh yeah. Now I remember why I don't like Instagram."
I guess loud / garish / low-res is the price you pay for Instagram's huge popularity. I hope Flickr can find that happy medium of being popular enough to stay alive, but not so popular that it takes on the characteristics that make Instagram unseemly.
