For user: the story feature is kinda like blog. They can share their thoughts, images, videos, stuff they are interested in with few clicks. General public never owned anything like blogs because it is not easy to set up as sharing stories. Also, stories actually engages followers/contacts with the content. I think that is why it's popular among users.
For companies: Best place to put ads is between stories. You get 100% views for the ads and hence more engagement. That is why every company is running after it.
- SilasX 6y agoYeah but it appears to be a bit more specialized and narrowly focused than a blog because a) it's apparently deleted after a few minutes or really hard to find after a short interval, and b) responses and reactions are shown only to that person and not the others who view ie. Also I don't know what makes this more true for the story than the feed: "stories actually engages followers/contacts with the content."
- bobthepanda 6y agoI am pretty sure they just hide/downrank the ones you‘ve seen and totally hide after 24h of being active.
