I personally am over Instagram. It's great if you're using it as a visual journal and if you have a lot of visual content to market. It's great for shopping, selling, design, artists, and animals. You really can great a great marketing plan using Instagram, FB, Youtube, and Pinterest.
I tried for a while to keep it for professional stuff, but I feel peer pressure to always post perfect stuff and so it has just gotten too stressful for me on my personal account. However, it works great for my side hobbies.
I do think that it's like junk food. It requires the bare minimum to interact, it's less polarized than FB, and it's easy to get sucked into an endless scroll on it. I think the average person can have a hard time breaking from it. Most people go to their jobs and come home and have nothing to do with it. Unlike developers, I feel we are always networking, coding, and creating outside of any traditional job we might have. Therefore, apps like Instagram can feel frivolous to us. But it depends on what you use it for.

It's great that you are over Instagram!
Same here, and now I can feel the freedom from the peer pressure, toxicity and endless memes bombarding my eyes.
I'm so happy that I'm over it.
