Who's on Instagram?

[mall walker]

Does it drive anyone else crazy how people treat their Instagram like they’re on a TV reality show? Especially the stories. Ugh just post cool shots...we don’t need all the other Bs.

especially the ones with 20+ separate frames, jfc

[MakersTeleMark]

Ditto.

[The SnowShow]

^^^ yes, so brutal. The filters, text and stupid posing for the different frames to tell the story. Just 🤦♂️
Plenty of ski pros I follow do it too and it’s getting bad. Makes you wonder if they really engage in life or just click pics and do vids off your phone and then over-edit and then post?

Everyone thinks (or acts) they’re a celebrity.

The worse is when people do a pic or vid while clearly driving. WTF?

[supermodel159]

Yep, IG stories are brutal. I make a point of not watching them, and I refuse to use them for my business despite high engagement. I can’t stand how it’s all about “look at me”. I like IG for the cool pictures, that’s it.

Heh. I was just thinking about when I was at a family deal a while ago, and my ex-SIL (my ex’s sister) checked in via FaceTime...while driving. Fuuuccckkk.

Her IG account is private.

I've been reading up a lot lately about the current Instagram algorithm since abandoning the chronological format.

Getting viewers to interact, including with stories, has a lot to do with feed placement. Sad, but true. I had no idea how much people were making on their feeds and youtube channels and that different feature sets are available to those with different levels of followers.

I don't give a shit, but it is a very well thought out business model on both ends.

[Meadow Skipper]

^^^. My daughter has almost 24k followers, her guy has almost 600k, they have a different IG than I do.

My daughter’s fucking dog’s account has more followers than I do.

Well, you do have a Grizzly avatar.

Well, you do have a Grizzly avatar.

Should I use that on my IG account? I want to be an influencer.

Same as Facebook, really. Minus the extra features of IG, of course.

The money businesses pay for influencer posts on IG is ridiculous. There are some interesting documentaries on Netflix about it.

Yeah, they’re insane to do so. I can’t believe it works, but then again I can’t believe most advertising works, since it doesn’t work on me. Anyone’s feed that is like a continuous ad turns me off of them and the product. So fucking annoying.

[MakersTeleMark]

I also refuse to follow anyone's feed where more than 30% of their photos are of themselves, no matter how hot they are.

That eliminates a ton.

But anyway, let's turn this thread around. Post up a feed you follow that you suggest.

Here's one: https://www.instagram.com/imaginarymagnitude/?hl=en

^ lol, and a very sound policy

Would bang, but fails my test by a million.

[plugboots]

May fail your test but...

I find her funny on Twitter as well.
I follow almost all the Nat’l Parks, their “alt” versions and a ton of Natgeo, Nikon. Canon etc. photographers.
I like the pics, or what IG started out as.

Nope. 100% narcissistic posts of herself, or re-posts/others' pics.

Wouldn't even want to bang that crazy egotistical cunt.

Exactly why Instacheeze has gone to hell.

If you are into photog stuff, check out Sean. He's made a switch to Fuji this year, but he has a great eye, and is a hellava guy. Check out his youtubez too: https://www.instagram.com/seantuck/

[Supermoon]

Do you know him? He’s been on my follow list for a bit.

A few non-outdoors photogs I follow that are great:

@platon

@albertwatsonphotography

@amivitale

@joshuakissi

@ragnaraxelsson

[geo039]

@downskis?

[JimmyCarter]

If you follow salomonfreeski you get free pics of buster (and his potential house guests!)

[grinch]

I don’t know him but Paul’s photography is really really good

Hahaha. So true.

[The Reverend Floater]

I'm completely done with FB, aside for work purposes. I fucking despise it. I enjoy Insta when it's not work related. Funny how a job that involves your passion can have an opposite effect on media.

@wooljockey

Mainly dogs, hunting, fishing and family shit. No dongs or titties, sorry.
