Now we can promote insane things without a ready gauge for who agrees and those that do not.

Playboy: Yeah, we’re just not going to have naked pictures anymore.
Sales plummet.
Instagram: Yeah, we’re just not going to have likes anymore.
Advertisers freak out.
Why do these companies turn their back on their own formula?

I’m happy this is happening. You know something is wrong when people decide not to like something because it doesn’t have enough likes yet. This might not be the perfect fix, but it shows they are trying to find solutions

People will just start taking screenshots of how many likes they get, then take pictures of how many likes the “like count” pic got.

BS. Their hiding likes so they can make you pay for it. Rather than people have organic reach.
