Instagram Introduces Reposts, Maps, and New Features to Compete with Snapchat and TikTok
Instagram is introducing new features including a reposts feed for Reels and posts, a Snap Map-like location feature in private messages, and updates to its activity tab, aiming to compete with TikTok and Snapchat, but these changes may not satisfy all users or creators who miss the platform's original focus on personal photo sharing.
YouTube to Discontinue Stories Feature in Favor of Shorts
YouTube is discontinuing its Stories feature, which allowed creators to post temporary updates or behind-the-scenes content. The feature will end on June 26th, and existing posts will expire after seven days. YouTube is instead encouraging creators to use Community Posts and Shorts to share content. Community Posts allow for text-based updates, polls, quizzes, images, and videos, while Shorts is a TikTok competitor for short-form video content.
