Instagram Blowouts

New Instagram update is horrid. If anyone knows of a way of making the ‘reels’ and ‘shopping’ tabs disappear then I’d be eternally grateful!

I wish they would make reels it’s own separate app, that shite keeps popping up in my feed and explore, there is no way to ignore it.

Fucking hell, listen to yourselves. Fos made a statement to say that he’s letting someone go because of their “past” issues. That is the right thing to do, does not matter how you feel about Fos, Heroin, this dude you have never heard of, it’s correct.
He supports the fact that the person is changing and states that they have further to go but as a company cannot condone that behaviour (whatever is was)

You all kicked off when a company didn’t release one of these statements quick enough a couple of months ago.

Guy who has never been on Instagram weighs in on Instagram debate.

This wasn’t done the right way.

This is social media man

Agree with @anon90826813 (I’ve only just clocked your username is flambé and not flame).

What else could they do? I don’t think putting up a social media post saying what they’ve done is making a song and dance about things… Is it??

Edited.

Hardly an “instagram debate”? They wrote a statement and put it out on the most obvious platform

There is, it’s called tiktok, Instagram are trying to be tiktok.

Seems it took them two weeks to get to this point. The fact that they haven’t said what the behviour is, but shame the guy in front of their 75k followers, is wrong. How is that going to stop whatever-it-was-he-did happening again? They shouldn’t be such pussies if they’re going to go as far as making a post about it. This is just “There was a bad man but he’s gone now”.

Look at the comments on it. This was done really badly, even if it was with the best of intentions.

It’s not Fos’ job to right the wrong, all he has to do is take a stance on it based on his own morals, which he has, and came out with the right outcome. You need to be hounding the guy you never heard of about this really.

I managed to avoid tiktok completely until this. Shows how much of a rip off it is, when you see reels videos that have been reuploaded and still have the tiktok watermark.

Nope. For all we know the guy is about to put a rope around his fucking neck.

I guess Instagram were hoping Trump would completely pull tiktok and were waiting in the wings to take over?

Exactly! so why has it become such an issue? And why hasn’t it become a bigger issue? It’s a dammed if you do, dammed if you don’t situ.
Strangers demanding justice in a situation they have no involvement in, while morally gallant, is such a weird tightroped place to put yourself. I’m not looking at you Builda, because I know you think I am haha.
I think we should, as voyeurs, judge and accept the decisions of persons with more involment.

I mean that’s pretty widely known I think. All this fuss was basically due to lobbying from the Zuckerbot.

Yeah… “Come on Trump we helped you win the election with Russian interference, now we want a favour.”
