Give up on IG. Install TikTok.

Aren't IG and TikTok very different tho? I used IG to share pictures of my dog once a year and have no interest in creating short form video.

IG is trying very hard to become TikTok, down to copying them wholesale in the Instagram “Reels” feature.

But yeah it depends on how you were using IG indeed.

For me TikTok replaced IG to a great degree. I used to scroll IG and post photos to IG. Now I scroll TikTok and post videos to TikTok.

What does TikTok do to remediate this situation?
