Not really, instagram is a way of keeping in touch, getting notified of new events, parties etc. I also follow a lot of people doing tattoos, makeup, cosplay etc.
One of the reasons was that Instagram until about 2 years ago was pretty cool about just showing you people you follow instead of dumping unwanted algorithmic shit on you. But after the rise of tiktok they have unfortunately mirrored that. You can still switch to following in the app but it keeps switching back.
It also gives the ability to follow people without giving your phone number which is really important because most of us aren't even known by our real names.

So it’s become an embarrassment within the last 2 years. Yeah, this is what I’m talking about.
Wow interesting, I thought social media was more an embarrassing thing to admit you participated in these days.
