Either we just had an #earthquake in #Maryland or my chubby black Lab is downstairs scratching his itchy skin. I genuinely don’t know which it was.

I realized that when I’m truly focused on my community, the changes become less frustrating. I’m willing to keep showing up because I care about the community I’ve built there. 💛

[Sara Tasker @meandorla]

So tell me honestly. What’s your relationship with Instagram looking like now?

[Molly Balint @mollybalint]

I also wonder if the shift to more video is because Creators are being told that this is the way to succeed on Instagram—so they’ve adapted to a medium they may not love to try to continue to grow. When maybe in reality they would prefer IG stick more closely to it’s origins.

[Adam @mosseri]

@sarahfrier That is the tension. There is also the question of whether or not what the loudest on Instagram and Twitter say is reflective of the broader community's sentiment.

Bob Saget never ended a conversation without saying "I Love You". ❤️

Oh boy. This sounds exciting!

🎉 Subscriptions 🎉

Subscriptions allow creators to monetize and become closer to their followers through exclusive experiences:

We hope to add more creators to this test in the coming months. More to come. ✌🏼

#Instagram is working on the ability to create lists of Close Friends 👀

[Molly Balint @mollybalint]

Pretty sure I succeeded ❤️ @subaru_usa #makeadogsday

[Alexandru Voica 💀 @alexvoica]

Collaborating is a huge part of how people connect on Instagram.

To make that easier, we’re testing a new way for people to co-author Feed Posts and Reels, called Collabs.

Here is how it works 🧵👇

All the best to Braves chairman Terry McGuirk and the entire McGuirk family 🙏
