You could also save yourself a lot of effort (and avoid being the constant subject of manipulation and exploitation) and not use centralized, capitalistic platforms like Instagram. Try Pixelfed ( https://pixelfed.org/ https://pixelfed.org/ ) or something.
- AuthAuth 1y agoWhen it feels like you constantly have to fight against the platform to try and scrap together a usable experience maybe its time to consider why you even use that platform. pixelfed is great and its such a breathe of fresh air compared to instagram.
- allemagne 1y agoIt's a fair ask, my honest considerations: - Tiktok: "I don't want or need this" -> Delete forever. - Pixelfed: "I don't want or need this" -> Don't install. - Instagram: "Still get a ton of value from seeing updates come in from family, don't want the option of getting deep into reels" -> Strict daily timer. - YouTube: "Still get a ton of value from the network of content published to the platform consistently, don't want the option of getting deep into shorts" -> ??? self control. The dilemma I have with YouTube feels like exactly what the OP's app is intended to solve.
- sbarre 1y agoNot OP but... The universal answer to this somewhat cliche and paternalistic comment is always "but that's where my people are".. And I want to be where my people are. So I choose to make informed trade-offs.
- nosioptar 1y agoFor those times when you need/want to see an Instagram post, imginn.com is 10,000 times better than Instagram (assuming the account isn't private).
