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)
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
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?
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.
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.

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