Images of text on Instagram is definitely wrong. Get a blog.

  There's one comedian I know who deleted his twitter account (I think in part because of harassment he was getting, and also in an attempt to obscure his less savory posts from his non-famous days). Then he took to Instagram and started posting images of text with comments disabled. At that point, why even bother? Does the number next to the heart button mean that much to you?

    Maybe to preven plagiarism? If people share the same image around, you can trace it back to the original author with a watermark, etc.

      You'd be surprised by how little compunction people have with just copying it (via screenshot) and sharing it anyway. See also: https://theawl.com/the-triumphant-rise-of-the-shitpic-e25d8e5af9bc https://theawl.com/the-triumphant-rise-of-the-shitpic-e25d8e...

      I should've been clearer -- he's not even posting jokes or anything creative, just random social commentary mostly.
