Instagram has been a huge part of my life for the past 10 or more years. I've been using it to capture moments and connect with friends and family. But recently, their changes have made it difficult for me to use the app how I want. So I decided to move over to another app called Vero, which offers more control and privacy than Instagram. It's also much more aesthetically pleasing. Plus, I like the fact that it now allows me to have multiple "stories" per day instead of just one. Now I can post photos, videos, articles, and even music! I also enjoy the fact that I can follow other accounts on Vero as well. Finally, I found an app that lets me share the things I'm passionate about without feeling like it's taking over my life!

When I signed up for an Instagram a long. I never thought it would one day become my main source of entertainment and information. It has allowed me to connect with others who share similar interests, but it's also introduced me to many new things that I would have never known about otherwise. It has allowed me to see the world through someone else's eyes, which is something I've never been able to do before.

But all of that is changing now thanks to recent changes to Instagram's policies. These have made it difficult for me to express my opinions and connect with people how I want to.

Endless algorithm updates, favouring short form over long-form content, constant changes to the interface, and increasing pressure to lean into short-form video content -
Long story short is I’m TIRED of it.

And now that I've discovered another app that allows me to post what I want without censoring my content, it feels like a breath of fresh air. I'm much happier now that I'm using Vero instead of Instagram!

I am also dedicating more time to Flipboard that I have been using for quite a few years and that I love and find brilliant

Flipboard is a unique social networking app that allows users to combine content from various sources into personalised magazines. The app is incredibly user-friendly and offers a variety of features that make it an ideal platform for staying up to-date on current events and staying informed on topics of interest. Here are four reasons why I love using Flipboard (in no particular order):

1. Access content from a wide variety of sources - Flipboard has partnerships with thousands of publishers and news organizations, allowing its users to access articles from virtually any source they choose. This includes traditional media outlets such as the New York Times, Washington Post, CNN, Fox News, etc., as well as popular blogs and websites such as ESPN, the Huffington Post, BuzzFeed, and Reddit. And because the app is cloud-based, you can access your content from virtually anywhere at any time.

2. Easily access the content you care about - In addition to accessing content from a wide variety of sources, Flipboard allows you to organize your articles based on various categories. This way, you can quickly access all of the articles that interest you without browsing through many irrelevant articles and ads. This allows you to tailor your experience to suit your specific needs and interests.

3. Follow interesting people and read their content - Because you can follow interesting people and subscribe to their publications, Flipboard makes it easy to stay up to date on their favourite topics and posts. You can scan your newsfeed for headlines that pique your interest and click through to read the full article when you find something you like. This saves you time and effort compared to reading countless news articles to find something that catches your eye.

4. Share your reading experience with your community - Flipboard has a social component that allows you to share your reading experiences with other community members. For example, you can post links to your favourite articles and share them with your friends and family on social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter. Similarly, you can comment on other people's posts and share your thoughts on topics that interest you. This provides an excellent opportunity to connect with other like-minded people and share your opinions with others who are interested in the same issues as you are. This enables you to expand your social circle and engage with other members of the community who share the same interests as you.
