Instagram Takes Away Likes
I think it's going to work regardless. It just sucks for us. I don't think it's going to be like a serious problem. And if it is, if Instagram dies, it doesn't matter because the new— because there'll be a new app and we'll be on it. And whoever wants to be on it will be on it. It's just, it's just a shift in attention. That's all it is, right? Is it doesn't matter. But for Instagram, yeah, I don't know. I'm curious. I don't think it'll affect anything. You know? No, I think, I think we're, we're a very, very, very, very small percentage of people that like actually rely on likes for, for their income almost. Like it's a very important part of our work. But I don't know, to the everyday person, maybe it doesn't matter. I've always, but I've always like, I've always been into likes. I've always been into analytics and I've always like in high school and middle school, like when I would see likes on statuses, like if a status got over 100 likes, I used to go, wow, this person fucking killed it. Like, this is funny. Like, you know what I mean? Like, it would rate— it would rate things for me and go like, this is that funny to me. This is like— I know that's a weird way to like judge something by its likes, but that's, that's what it is. It's like a— sure, it's like a ranking system. It's like how loud people are applauding for this. It's like taking away, you know, applause at the end of performances at American Idol because you want all the contestants to have the same exact applause. Like, it just doesn't make sense. Like, it's like, you, you know, you, you don't watch a show, you don't watch a talent show and have everyone win, or, you know, no one win.
