I've had the same experience. Stories seem to have overtaken the normal posts as the more common content.
I think it's because users regard stories as acceptable for mundane, kind of boring, every day life content. Whereas singular posts come with greater expectations of quality or exceptionalism.
- foldingmoney 7y agoSeems like this should result in more likes on your average post (which should now be above average, since the weaker content has been moved to stories).
- goldfeld 7y agoOr maybe stories and posts are generally useless drivel (posts can't be all above their average.)
- foldingmoney 7y agoMy guess is that Instagram users on average probably follow more people than they did one or two years ago but probably give out about the same total number of likes.
