So what Instagram did? They monetised Reels.

And we all know what shitty place Instagram Reels is, well in my country it is.

Short vertical videos that are up to 60 seconds long.

In addition to this, companies also sponsor influencers. So people naturally will try to gain attention, which means they’ll do anything and post garbage content.
