Just check Reddit.

These last couple days I have seen many people claim to hate the new Instagram.

Apparently they are sick of the ads and new layout and are not spending as much time on the platform or they are just leaving altogether.

I feel like Instagram is gonna turn into Facebook so i'm starting to look for an alternative. What do you think will be the next best thing or do you think IG is here to stay and will just become pay to play?

Even Gary Vee has been warning people that just because you have a million followers or a blue check doesn't mean you will keep it if the platform dies.

I think people will use social media less in general and kinda just use imessage/sms stuff.

I do have an instagram account , but deleted the app from my phone earlier

18 and don’t use social media anymore so ;)
 
I don't feel like Instagram will every die by being not worth, look at the Facebook, or some moba games. People are talking how Facebook is dying, but still a really successfull journeys about it. There are always apps whose are big success and failures like TikTok, Snap etc.. but there are hit and miss. Insta and Face will be 2 apps that will hold the "market" for some time in future. So if you want to start business I would still recommend trying Instagram :) At least that's my opinion.
 
Just wait for a couple of days those same people claiming to "leave" will be back and the complaints will stop. Happens with every website/app that does updates.
 
It can't die. I don't even start making money from here still now :-D
 
Instagram will never die,Neither it’s Mother Facebook will.

It will just be more hard and Business Oriented for them,They won’t care about people anymore as they want people to pay for ads and slowly this will be a havoc where you will have to do what the social media want you to do.

You just have to evolve and upgrade according to the situation,If some things change that doesn’t mean the platform will die or it died.

That is exactly what I was trying to explain :D
 
Instagram is not dying. Don't tell me you believe the platform is dying because some Reddit users said they're leaving. Lol.

People leave Instagram and social media everyday but that doesn't mean the platforms they left are dying or going to die.:D
 
If there's someone you can trust to be ruthless enough to never let his company die, it's Mark Suckerberg.
 
agree with you, the old version was much better and easier
 
Any proof that Instagram is dying?

Last time I checked their active users just go up and up, never down. People check IG everyday, even if it's for few minutes.
 
If engagement and overall activity goes down because of negative feedback/reaction to the update, Instagram knows how to deal with it, they're not new to this game young man.

I’ve always hated Instagram. I guess it makes sense that people would soon catch on too.

19 here and don´t use any social media just whatsapp, got tired of the constant "perfect life photos", dropshipping, etc.

I don´t think any social network will die until a bigger one appears but each day more and more people leave social media and its a perfect detox to your life.
 
If anything it's growing, an update a % of people dislikes doesnt mean the platform is dying..
 
I doubt so, Best is look at those entertainment industry their celebrities into what thing to promote themselves online.
I see still Facebook, IG are the main things Now due to lock, come celebrities been pay , hire to sell stuffs from FB live in my country here. If compare with FB and IG , my country here the celebrities kinda more into IG.
Else twitter " sad my personal twitter still no news to get un suspended..... I already give up zzz thus can't use twitter only just view "
On twitter side ironic kinda dying for my side here, I hardly see celebrities tweet on their twitter account
unlike in USA more active , celebrities like Lady Gaga etc even famous DJ , always see them tweet daily every single day
