This. Instagram was probably amazing back when it only had people who looked good in pics and/or were good at taking pics, and only posted stuff if it was particularly interesting. Rather than the whole world being sorta forced to put random pics on there.

It's even worse now. I have an insta account for my business, and overnight likes on pics plummeted. Now, since they presumably want to compete with TikTok, you only populate on peoples feeds with videos, and posting CONSTANTLY. If you stop for a day or two, you basically start back over. I don't want to spend time on there, I don't want to post multiple times daily, but to stay "relevant" you don't have a choice.
