So Instagram has just launched its product to directly compete with TikTok.

What do we all think of Reels? Do you think it will have the growth power TikTok provided? Will the algorithm be similar? How can it be monetized? Is there any REEL benefit to using this? Do you see what I did there?

I'm interested in hearing your opinions!

It's gonna be the same shit as TikTok, but the only difference is that it will be controlled by Zucc.... if TikTok gets completely banned Reels will shine and people will eventually switch to it

I feel that Instagram is just going to add too much things that nothing will work at the end.

IGTV literally got over because of reels and they are two different things one is a copycat of YouTube and another is TikTok

This will make everything harder to become viral and even reach a good percentage of people.

Imo dont see TikTok going out of US they will come to any kind of agreement and Instagram is going to add any other features I guess that we are not far from an onlyfans copycat with soft content on Instagram.

Instagram always tends to support people utilizing their new features so you can expect they will do the same with Reels. I doubt people will be able to tap into the same growth and exposure potential offered by TikTok, but as far as Instagram is concerned, taking advantage of Reels could be a great way to get your content in front of new people and gain exposure with new audiences.

I think that people who get really creative with Reels will be able to power their content and personal brand growth, as a TikToker would using the app. I really don't know if I would use this new IG feature because of my niche... But I've seen great content when it comes to comedy. It would be truly interesting to see how businesses will take advantage of this feature.

I think it's all about picking the right content to post and knowing how to reach a new audience in a positive way.
