Welcome back to my Blog! From Blog Post 10 we were asking to find a American Zeitgeist topic and i choose how does Instagram affect our Mental health. on this blog post i will be furthering my research and annotating the website about How Instagram Hiding likes affects your mental health. Instagram is the Social Media Platform that is most detrimental to young peoples well being. When you go on Instagram you see that beneath every post is a "Like" button. A like button on social media today represents a positive community feedback.
In an effort to reduce focus on "likes" Instagram may try and hide the likes on a post They already tested this in 7 different countries. If Instagram decides to move forward with this change than only you will be able to see how many likes you receive on a post. Removing likes has many people hopeful. When using Instagram if you feel any type of stress, anxious, or depressed. Theres many different steps to help you improve your mental health like on the picture above.

Hey Jada. I like the diagram shown for your research project. I know instagram share similar features with facebook but I can't say to what extent. That is, I have never been a fan or user of instagram because I always admire how much time and interest people put in it along with bashing or adorable comments people sometimes make in the public. I really look forward to dive into your research topic as I really want to understand why instagram has become an addiction for many in society.

Great topic and in today's time people have so much stress and anxiety. Today they are trying to live their life for the camera instead of appreciating life in private they do it for The Gram.

I really like the diagram that you show for this blog post, I think I do 3 out of the 6 methods of protecting my mental health. I do agree that the like button on social media as I see it as a double edged sword; Although likes gives you positive feedback, I feel people would be too reliant on it. They need more likes to make them feel good and become obsessed with getting likes in the end.
