> it evolved for a segment of people

Every social media platform has a lot of different segments of people using it for different reasons.

If one of your follows is posting content you don’t like, it’s so easy to unfollow them. If you feel obligated to follow for social reasons, Instagram even has convenient features to hide their posts so you can maintain the follow without seeing their content.

I’m not a heavy Instagram user but I’ve found it trivially easy to tailor my feed to the content I want to see (friends and family). That’s why I don’t find much interest in the pearl clutching about how some people post on the platform. I’m not there to judge and moralize about others.

Let's ignore the things that upset us even more easily, while maintaining the required social appearances even harder!

Ah, such progress!

Speechless, except obscenely.
