A couple of weeks ago, a post on Instagram, that called people on the social media platform to arms to force Instagram to 'Make Instagram Instagram Again', went viral. Instagram took notice of the post and the head of Instagram put out a video explaining how Instagram is already Instagram with all the creators, community and chaos on it, and trying to make it Instagram again will actually make it less Instagram, since the entire world has moved on from what people claim was Instagram at one point-aesthetic pictures and vibes.
Each time any social media platform changes its algorithm, mass protesters online decry the changes and demand that we go back to the algorithm from the good old days because they made our lives better, easier, and more monetisable, and then, eventually, get used to the new algorithm, and one day that changes, and we twist and shout and scream out loud again.
