Every so often I realize I haven't seen anything from one category in a LONG time. I think, "Didn't I use to follow a bunch of athletes?" then I go look at their actual accounts and they've been posting all along but I didn't get shown the pictures because I was liking the pictures I was shown about books or whatever. Frustrating. I don't use instagram as much as I used to for that reason.heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00247612074517816806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5625112725976763704.post-68821832632780285892018-01-21T15:23:11.896-06:002018-01-21T15:23:11.896-06:00The thing that is driving me crazy about Instagram...The thing that is driving me crazy about Instagram is that when I log in on my phone and start scrolling, I see a quick flash of something interesting that I want to look at and then the feed refreshes and it disappears! If I could just see every post in chronological order, this wouldn't be a problem, but with the algorithm, it's impossible to tell where to look for that post. Sometimes I find it, but many times I don't. Meanwhile, I'm seeing lots of posts dated last week sometime, many of which are giveaways, etc. that have ended.<br /><br />Katie @ <a href="http://www.readathomemom.com/" rel="nofollow">Read-at-Home Mom</a>Katie Fitzgeraldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14580221549732983068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5625112725976763704.post-36197980911794417702018-01-17T17:05:47.360-06:002018-01-17T17:05:47.360-06:00I'll confess that I don't know much about ...I'll confess that I don't know much about how Instagram works and I tend to just look at my feed randomly. I didn't actually realize that I wasn't seeing everyone's posts.

I want to see EVERYONE's shit who I've followed. Don't tell me who my online friends are! Just rude. I wish IG also had the same feature as FB where you can click and change from most popular to chronological. Why isn't IG listening to the people??

I never use it for giveaways and shit, because what's the point?

It’s showing me all my own posts in the top posts. And they have like 30 likes so they’re not the top posts. Today it showed one with 6 likes in front of one with 400. Maybe Instagram is just really bad at math? I’m scared to look to see if the Most Recent section is actually in chronological order.Gretlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05510187188060388026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5625112725976763704.post-16807637810411265562018-01-09T15:53:42.850-06:002018-01-09T15:53:42.850-06:00Hot damn, the downfall?

I use social media as tool to meet new people, not to have the same five IGers shoved down my throat so that they can keep getting sponsorship vids. <br /><br />I hadn't heard about the 4-5 hours ago theory, have you found it to be helpful?

I feel like IG needs to have that same thing. I hate logging in (today) and seeing peoples Christmas posts. Not that there's anything wrong with your holiday pictures but it's JANUARY! I want to see your latest pictures. >.< I couldn't imagine trying to use IG as a platform for quick draw contests or announcements to purchase things.
