If you intentionally obscure a feature, people won't use it.
If you make it the default, they will.
just like they forced reels on everyone by pushing it in the algorithm to later say "see! everyone wants reels now, they don't want photos anymore!"
If you expect privacy with any meta product you are insane to begin with.
If people thought TikToks invasion of privacy was bad, wait until they realize how bad meta products are
It's really interesting that even with occasional usage of the app not once has this setting been mentioned or brought up for me. Why remove it?
Next, WhatsApp loses this "rarely used" feature also
Sorry guys, my fault. Zuck just thought my beautiful dick pics shouldn't be hidden from the world any longer
