Snapchat to me is sharing your shaky drunken escapades at 3AM with your friends to let them know you made it home and survived the night. Instagram seems more like an endless observation of copy-and-paste, superficial things and people and places. It's evolved more into a (usually inaccurate) portrayal of status than anything else.
- foolfoolz 9y agoinsta has always been the status platform. the pictures are permanent. you only post your best pics and need a history of just the best. "this is who I am" snapchat is fleeting. the quality can be lower. no one is gonna care. and the fact you have to take the picture then is more exciting than posting any old pic you found online. "this is what I'm doing" I can snap you my beer, I'll insta the edited GoPro footage of me cliff jumping
- burger_moon 9y agoThis is getting downvotes but it reflects very closely to what I see. I don't use insta but I go on to browse occasionally of people I follow on snapchat and it's a stark contrast of what you see on the two. Insta pictures are all perfect, perfect posing, perfect lighting, and some bs quote or string of text. Snapchat is the mundane, the normal side of people that I see. People taking videos in the moment. I don't use fb live or insta stories so I'm not sure how those end up.
