Instagram changed into glorified tiktok and lost their sense of identity

[NamIess]

Instagram became so annoying. It does not show You the creators You follow but it shows paid ads from mediocre "Influencers". If You do not pay for advertising, no one from Your followers see Your posts. It also changed to short videos which I hate from my soul instead of pictures. If I would like to watch shitty short videos, I would create a TikTok account for that (I do not have one).

Meta trying too hard to be just like everyone else! Instagram needs to go back to what it did best, uploading regular PICTURES without assumptions.

I'm a full time blacksmith and blade maker and Instagram has truly screwed me and my community over hard. Banning our content over and over for no reason

2:38 correction: Photoshop was only the extension of what we did in the lab with masks (paper), brushes, scalpels, paint and time. Picture editing existed decades before photoshop was even called "display".

Instagram has literally died. Unless you're famous or a model it feels like your posts don't even get shown on the algorithm. As a regular dude posting my photography, my posts get like 5 likes and barely even get seen. It's extremely frustrating.

There’s a simple fix. Make your image, then screenshot it off your computer, save again and then upload. The indicators are coming from Adobe when you export the image. They are embed in the image metadata.

yeap.... the old Photoshop tools we used for years are now called the fancy name "made with AI". There is a clear line where AI starts but removing a pimple??? ha... no... we used to do that with "OLD FASHIONED TOOLS" for years

[rajavidhun]

Every single picture from any phone can be deemed as "Made with AI"

[Gordongreenhorn]

A collab I wasn’t expecting but absolutely needed. Can’t wait for Jason’s video!

[SuperConsumer]

"if this says imagined with AI on it I'll F break my phone"

Best words ever!

[danielschmaderer]

This was absolute fire. I love the way infrared landscape photography looks.

[tomrenegadefilms]

Don't know what it was about this video, but it felt like just chilling with a mate and chatting. Loved the relaxed vibe man, it feels good. Feels right!

[strawberrytango]

Can you imagine someone getting photos back from a wedding, posting them, and then freaking out about the AI tag 🤯

[itsAnnaMargaret]

This is super interesting! I'm definitely on the fence about this tag! As someone who makes a point to only minimally edit my photos, but does use photoshop I'm really interested to see how Instagram auto tags my posts!

IG's lost its way for photographers a while ago. Trying to upload pics is even worse.

[TheRealDaWood]

Never expected a Peter McKinnon Video to be exactly 13:37 lol

[willdegraw]

Jason is the OG. Cannot wait for his video!

I am so happy to see you introduce so many folks to film. It took me losing so many clients to shoot digital in the early 2000's. Even though I no longer shoot it, my film days were my favorite time of my career. Now I have to go find my images I shot with infrared....
