I don't understand the all-out shift for videos. I can no longer find my comic, travel, and meme pages - just videos taken from the opposing platform. You want to bring reels to Instagram? Fine, but don't exterminate quality content in the process. You can keep a tab for reels and a tab for images, in addition to, or within, the home tab. Plus, people don't come to Instagram to shop, and making it a shopping platform won't ever catch on. Also, the new Wall view, of seeing one post a time is BAD.

One of the worst apps ever. The text box for the comments is too small, which irritates while commenting and going back and fort. So you can't really see if you have made errors while typing. As soon as you send your comment and notice errors, you can't edit your comment anymore. Trust me, it makes me crazy.

Worse with each passing day. It is so full of bugs that I have a feeling only interns work on it. E.g. the Mixed format is extremely bugged, stretching all horizontal images in the feed but appearing correctly on the profile. EDIT: Now broken on profile as well. Every post has been destroyed retroactively. Just hope it's not intended, but nothing would surprise me at this point. Not to mention the reels pushed down your throat constantly, and barely seeing posts from accounts you follow.
