Return to Thoughts ...

You are welcome to follow me on Instagram but there's a few things I'd like you to know.

 

The Instagram platform began as a place for everyone to share their photos. It has been great for people sharing their interests and serious photographers. However, since the puchase of the platform by Facebook things have seriously changed. 

 

Instagram CEO Adam Moserri recently said "We're no longer a photo-sharing app," ...  "The number one reason people say that they use Instagram, in research, is to be entertained. So people are looking to us for that."

 

So as Facebook has changed its Instagram algorythms and put more emphasis in "entertaing" short videos photography is getting lost. 

 

Where does that leave us? Well, I will continue to use Instagram but if a better photography platform presents itself I'll try that, too. I'll let you know. I am not going to lose the people I enjoy following or those who follow me. 

 

Stay tuned !
