I never really understood what's the Instagram hype all about. I see the point for people with the need to share selfies from within their phones all day long, I mean that's what Instagram is: a selfie-echo-chamber. But there is no point to use it as an artist. You can't even include a working web link into your post which cripples any sort of promotion for shows, auctions or any other external content. I tried Instagram but it was a waste of time. Luckily we have better options today!
I want to encourage the artists here to invite their audiences to take a look at steemit!
I'm done with Instagram. It's a dead end and I don't want to waste my energy there any more. It's time for you content creators to get payed for your creativity, with real value, not just with 'likes' or 'hearts'. Don't waste yourself on platforms like Instagram or Facebook by earning THEM billions with YOUR content, with your time!
I'm moving my primary online activities to steemit.com, a decentralized blockchain-based social network with a promising reward systems for content creators. It's not perfect but it's a beginning. I'll keep sharing my steemit blogs on my Facebook page. On Instagram, however, I can't even share an external web link! So goodbye Instagram, see you on the other side!
Cheers,
Peter
