I hadn't seen one of these deep links before I installed the app. After I installed the app they just opened the app but did nothing because I don't have an account. But I just uninstalled the app and now I see. This makes me a lot more positive on this product!
They just extracted Instagram comments and threw them in a sea of whitespace. No thought is given to anchoring content by importance or context, nor is there any esthetic apeal to it.
I was seriously considering trying it out, but if there’s no search engine visibility, there’s no point. Most of the searches for my real name pull up tweets.
Hopefully it’s just a missing feature that will be added later. Even TikToks are linkable, and those have very little google visibility.
