Instagram запустил у себя ТикТок (назвал его Reels) и так же агрессивно, как ВК, впаривает пользователям: у некоторых уже заменилась самая главная кнопка — создание нового поста — на иконку Reels.
Но здесь у меня меньше бомбит, чем от действий ВК. Во-первых, в инстаграме короткие видеоролики выглядят уместно. Они здесь и раньше были в основной ленте, просто теперь фактически то же самое в новом интерфейсе. «Соцсеть» с самого своего основания сконцентрирована на коротком жвачкоподобном контенте без вдумчивости. Во-вторых, инстаграм уже давно был, прямо скажем, не самым внимательным к пользователю сервисом. Некоторые люди ведут его вопреки, потому что там массовая аудитория (менее взыскательная), но плюются от неудобства и бестолковых ограничений. А кто мог терпеть всё, что там делалось, стерпит и кнопку.
Куда показательнее другой момент: корпорации-монополисты могут позволить себе делать ну практически что угодно. И если в экономике монополию стараются пресекать специальными законами, но монополии различных сервисов и соцсетей живут себе спокойно. Причём, при наличии социального графа такие монополии очень прочны: вы можете вместо айфона купить себе андроид сегодня же, и ваших друзей это затронет слабо, но переехать из какого-нибудь Фейсбука в ВК так просто не выйдет. Именно поэтому мы видим ситуации, когда самым популярным становится сервис, уступающий конкурентам вообще по всем показателям, и на порядок менее удобный (например WhatsApp и Telegram).
И поэтому, в числе прочего, крупные игроки строят экосистемы и пытаются создать внутри себя копии популярных решений конкурентов. Если привязать пользователя и сделать процесс ухода для него сложным и некомфортным, то потом можно ему хоть рекламой всё забивать, хоть кнопки менять, хоть глупые функции добавлять в главное меню — никуда он уже не денется, скушает за милую душу.
В антиутопическом будущем по такому же принципу корпорации будут вшивать людям лишние предметы в тело, а те вместо отказа от услуг станут придумывать способы, как с этими предметами жить наиболее эффективно. Ещё и курсы откроют по обучению: «Раскрутка с топором в заднем проходе», «Как набрать первую воду в мешок на шее» и «Учимся таргетировать магнит в кишках на правильные объекты».

A vibrant, whimsical acrylic painting of a cheerful peacock mid-jump, executed in a "naive art" or "folk art" style. The peacock has a simplified, rounded pink face with a small smile and long, thin black whiskers. Its body is elongated and segmented with bold turquoise and bright pink horizontal stripes. The background is a textured, painterly mix of saturated orange, sunny yellow, and soft violet with visible brushstrokes and "grungy" distressed edges. Incorporate large, decorative circular "eye" patterns on the peacock's body or in the air around it, featuring concentric rings of teal, red, and white dots. Use a bold color palette of hot pink, cyan, orange, and yellow, with thin, sketchy black ink outlines and whimsical white dotted accents throughout the composition. Make it a vertical one with an aspect ratio of 9:16

A vibrant digital painting in anime style, vertical 9:16 aspect ratio. A black cat is sitting on a metal balcony rail in an urban environment, seen from behind, gazing up at a giant Saturn-like planet in the sky. The planet is partially covered by clouds and fades naturally into the swirling sunset sky. The sky transitions from warm golden and orange tones near the horizon to deep purples and blues above. The city below is bathed in warm sunlight, with rooftops, distant buildings, and subtle power lines adding depth. The overall mood is serene and dreamlike, evoking quiet wonder.

A mesmerizing nocturne painting capturing a city at midnight, reminiscent of the style of Mariusz Lewandowski. The city streets are cloaked in darkness, with only dim lights illuminating the cobblestone pathways. A lonely streetlamp casts a warm, golden glow, while the buildings in the background loom ominously in the shadows. A few silhouettes of trees and billowing curtains add depth to the scene, while the silence is palpable. The oil painting exudes a sense of serenity and solitude, with rich, textured brushstrokes that bring the city to life.

An award winning photograph of a street photo of an old man sitting on a subway, wearing a casual cloth with buttons. He is looking slightly to the side. The lighting is soft, emphasizing the subject's natural features, and the background is slightly blurred, showing part of a subway interior. The image is framed with a Polaroid-style border, and subtle handwritten text "AI_artz" is written on the lower part of the frame. The overall mood of the scene feels calm and introspective, with a focus on the old man's expression and the quietness of the moment. Use natural colors and a real-life aesthetic. --ar 9:16 --v 6.1
