    Instagram, handsdown!

    None of that annoying Facebook-like drama in the comments, or horrible trolls like on YouTube. Instagram focuses on photos and videos. It's all I see, not necessarily about political and religious opinions. I never see Instagram drama. If there's a post someone doesn't like, it's so easy to just swipe down or swipe up, away from sight.

    Instagram is basically like SnapChat now with the Stories, which might be lame to some people, but I like it! I don't need to switch to and from apps if I want to post a quick 24-hour picture or video.

    Instagram has DMs where you can have group chats as well, a Post Saving feature, a post notifications feature. In the future, I just wish Instagram will update their videos so that you can scroll through the video to rewind or fast forward.

    Not forgetting Live videos!

    About the only (two, actually) gripe i have about Instagram is the non-ascending/chronological timeline (dammit, Facebook), and the inability to capture live videos in landscape mode.
    I mean, humans are wired to see landscapes better, why not include that?

    Love how Tumblr allows you to scrub the videos without making them fullscreen.

    Instagram is my preferred, Facebook atleast in my experience is full of drama and endless fake articles.
