What annoys me about the update is obviously the layout and UI. You can’t scroll freely and you don’t know how many flips it takes to move to the next item.
But worse is the content selection.
A really nice feature of instagram used to be that the feed had an end. “You are now done watching who you follow. If you wanna keep hanging around here’s some random stuff”
That was really nice and quite the refresh compared to other doom scrollers.
Then they slowly started adding non-subscribed content into your main feed and I’m sure the metrics were great. I at least ended up looking at them longer than average cause I couldn’t figure out who the hell I knew that was posting _that_. Then realized it wasn’t anyone I followed and got annoyed.
But the metric don’t capture that.
With the redesign you might as well not follow anyone. Its like 75% of your feed is ads and randos.
