There's a couple handfuls of people I know personally who still use it as all-photo Facebook, and just post pictures of their dogs, or their kids, or their lunch.
Everything else is wall-to-wall hustling. Explicitly sponsored ads, business accounts promoting their stuff, meme pages that are hawking stuff in the comments, managed celebrity accounts, fitness models shilling supplements, and on and on and on.
Every purchase my fiance has made from an Instagram has been low quality Chinese junk. In a couple cases, we've found the exact SKU for sale on aliexpress for ~ 1/3 the price.
It's ridiculous when some of the Instagram ads are drop shipped from China at 4x the price of AliExpress. At least relocate the product to the US for faster shipping if you're going to charge more. The fluffy soft shiba inu pillows are advertised at like $30 on instagram with 2-3 week shipping and AliExpress has the same lead time and they're $8.
