I just don’t get the appeal of Instagram.
« on: July 14, 2023, 04:29:04 am »
I’ve tried, it just eludes me. It is disjointed and odd to try to follow. I joined because my soon to be daughter in law sent me an invite. Mostly because they were posting engagemen pics and such and she was excited to include me(which I was thrilled to be thought of). So now I have an account and I’ve wandered around in there and it is very unsatisfying. I have an Airbnb rental and keep getting articles from big Airbnb promoters that Instagram is the way to go. Is it just me? Does anyone have a good tutorial or insight?

Is there anyone out there aside from me, my daughter and her husband, who has never had a  FB account, doesn't text, has never been on IG, snap chat, etc.? DD has an up to date phone for her professional contacts, driving directions but is otherwise never on her phone (unless we are talking - yes, communication through talking! ). I'm worse as I have only an emergency flip phone. Except for the time spent here and some OTA TV, I love being ""disconnected"" but very Mindfully in the present.

Hey there! It can be a bit overwhelming to navigate Instagram at first, but don't worry; you're not alone! Plenty of tutorials and insights are available to help you make the most of it. Have you tried searching for beginner's guides on YouTube? They can provide step-by-step instructions and tips to improve your Instagram experience. If you're looking to boost your Instagram engagement, you might want to consider checking out SMM World. They offer a service where you can buy Instagram likes, which can help increase visibility and interaction.

Being connected takes too much time, so I keep it simmering on the back burner most of the time. I have a regular routine I follow to collect the Satoshi that I earned in my sleep, then complete a few tasks to earn a little more (like Fusioncash) and play a few hands of Free Cell Solitaire to let my CryptoTab Browser add some without any real effort and that's about it.

And I like social media. I spend a lot of time on Instagram. Plus, I have a TikTok. And I'll tell you more, I have accounts on all sorts of social networks. And it doesn't bother me one bit. I even used an account promotion service recently. Went to https://celebian.com/buy-tiktok-views and I was honestly surprised. From the moment I logged in and out of it it took 10 minutes and already the order was placed. And I instantly started receiving what I ordered.

I don't use Instagram.  I have a tik tok account only because my daughter sent to something, but I never use it.  I do have a facebook account that I go on several times a day.

I find Facebook handy to keep up with our 6 kids and 13 grandkids that are spread all over the country now. At least they know who we are and that we still care about them.

Social Media has gotten more mind boggling if you are trying to be in touch with others.  I very seldom use my twitter, FB, Instagram plus others etc.  They really do not grab my interest.

I totally understand not getting the Instagram hype at first. It can seem like a lot of people are just posting pictures of their food or selfies, right? But the thing is, it's more than just that. It's a way to connect with friends and see what they're up to, kind of like a virtual scrapbook of memories. Plus, you can discover new interests, follow your favorite celebrities, and even find some really cool local businesses and artists. It's not all about filters and likes; it's more about sharing experiences. Oh, and by the way, if you're ever into buying or selling stuff locally, you might need to buy facebook marketplace account. It's an easy way to become successful as soon as possible because you don't need to develop your account on your own.

I have Instagram but I only follow family and good friends and don't go in everyday either.  I have facebook which I look at everyday but that is it.  No Twitter and no Tiktok either, no time for so much non sense

At some point, it became very popular on Instagram to discuss online life, and I remember it very well. I couldn’t afford onlifans, since it’s a paid service, but now there’s no need for that thanks to other resources. You can click here to get free access to Onlyfans, Fansly and Manyvids leaks, so be sure to check it out.

I never did either until my daughter told me that since I enjoy taking photos of the food I make, I should have an instagram page. I only have 115 followers but I enjoy what I do

I prefer communities that center around making money online, like ForumCoin.com where they pay me a few cents a day for posting my comments.

I try to attract more followers too right now. I found useful article at https://freaksense.com/swift-success-unveiling-the-advantages-of-fast-and-secure-instagram-follower-acquisition/ with tips for quick gaining Instagram followers. I found out that LosFamos service offers excellent chances to increase website traffic, produce prospects, and eventually turn followers into devoted clients. LosFamos provides a safe and dependable way to gain followers quickly and naturally
