InstaGram is Pokemon Snap.

Don't be dissing Pokemon Snap like that, it was a first person photography game for N64 and it was brilliant back in 1999.

More like Pokemon Go — digital manipulation imposed on reality. False sense of community.

Pokemon Snap is about photography. InstaGram is about photography.

I thought this would have been obvious lol 🤷🏻‍♂️

Instagram is about as much about photography as GTA Online is about actual drug dealing.
