People Are Mad That Instagram’s Explore Page Is Serving Up Nature & Not Memes
A bunch of angry Instagram users have been tweeting out their frustration at the fact their explore page has recently changed, and is now showing too much nature and not enough memes.
This is the world we live in.
The algorithm on the “For You” page is tailored to suit your needs based on your usage of Instagram. So if you’re into stalking Bachelor couples like I am but can’t commit to following them full time, you’re probably just going to get a lot of posts from washed up reality TV stars. And hey, I’m not complaining. You guys from Love Island keep living your best life promoting whatever the hell you want.
However, some people are now complaining that their algorithm has switched and they’re not impressed:
Like, can you not with the nature photography????
uhhh instagram has completely FUCKED my explore page and its like completely refreshed it? and is now all photography of nature or buildings and things i never interacted w before and decided to throw in videos of one of my biggest fears??? end me?
