The way people are so regularly sucked into tapping away on their phones is one of the reasons I don’t like it.
Haven’t used it in over 3 years, and I don’t miss it. It got to the point of why I was wondering why I’d sit there flicking through the news feed only to read about what someone’s aunt Joan was going on a racist rant about.
Instagram hasn’t been any better with the rise and incouragement of influencer culture.
They’re increasingly subversive in their tactics which is something I’ve always disliked in any company.
They get to a certain size and have to keep pushing for growth as they need to further maintain their growth rates to prove they’re still worth investment money.
Where does that end?
In a heavily diluted form they would both be fine, but the dark patterns in their designs are prevalent, in spite of what good they might have offered the world.
I don’t give Coca Cola a pass because their drink tastes good and can make people happy at times. They’ve cordoned off entire towns water supplies through shady dealings. Know what I mean?
