How I feel about Instagram

Published on Oct 04, 2024.

Why I like it

I get to see my co-students post screenshots of stuff they are working on. I get to see what past friends are up to. I get to discover new tofu recipes.

Why I dislike it

I get to see a lot of very fit people. Very muscular, very low amount of body fat. People with very thin, toned, symmetrical faces and beautiful eyes and definitely no double chin. I get to see people getting height surgery. And people saying that the best time to get botox is at 20 y/o. Also lots of people getting nose jobs, even though their noses look perfectly fine to me.

Update from Jan 27, 2025:
I uninstalled the app a few weeks ago and sometimes check it in my phone's browser where I've blocked videos. Self-esteem successfully restored.
