I agree completely with what you've said.

I installed Instagram about 2 years ago and I couldn't bear the number of posts from authors that I did not know about on the main timeline. The point of Instagram for me is to see my friends' pictures.

I uninstalled the app but only use the webapp to send messages to friends every now and then. I was thinking "maybe Instagram Lite is the answer", but it turns out it's the complete opposite; no messaging features, only timeline for doomscrolling.

We are calling it "social" media, but it sure isn't being social with friends. Can't monetize that.
