“TikTok was a canteen; Instagram is a café. But the canteen has better food, and the café serves costly coffee that not everyone drinks.”
Instagram has largely replaced TikTok in India, and erased working-class creators - Rest of World - Argues how TikTok offered an opportunity to content-creators belonging to economically downtrodden and marginalised communities.
Pretty interesting read!
This was a really interesting read, and the aesthetics bit is quite true.
I read a fascinating conspiracy theory last year, which was way more elaborate and far better articulated than this, but here’s the summary:
“Zuckerberg had TikTok banned in India, so that Instagram could launch Reels”
ha ha well said. It is quite true that there’s a different test in between the TikTok and instagram. But the major difference from the point of view of a common person is that in this two fascinated world people think that their life is in a humiliation stage, and in order to achieve that kind of fascinated life they need to upgrade themselves with the trend.
