Katie Notopoulos: ‘I’m Sorry to Report Instagram Is Bad Now’

Katie Notopoulos, writing at BuzzFeed:

Look, I don’t want to talk about this any more than you do. I didn’t want this to be true. I wanted this to work out; I thought this was the platform that could be The One to make it with us for the long haul. But it’s time to get real. It’s not working out. Instagram kind of sucks now. And it’s not Instagram, it’s not us, it’s an outside force that is tearing us apart. That homewrecker is Stories.

I found myself nodding my head in agreement throughout — and she doesn’t even mention the non-linear algorithmic timeline.
