Instagram beyond GRWM, travel reels, concert fits, and meesho essentials

General

For a very long time, I avoided using Instagram, thinking its distractive, addictive, and of course, the jealousy of seeing everybody having fun. But I recently logged in after 4 years, and its intellectual, creative, and wholesome side amazed me.

  • We have people talking about the Whirlpool Galaxy, comets, and the cosmic secrets that are only known by the astrophysicists, astrophotographers, or the gods.

  • Molecular biologists are opening up about their research ideas, patents, and tricks that have helped them survive their PhDs.

  • Cinematographers are teaching camera angles, lighting effects, and depth of movie scenes, which can change your perception towards cinema.

  • Media and literature people are quoting writers like Friedrich Nietzsche and their Ăśbermensch theory, which states that legacy is optional.

  • Gods, religions, and people talking about how they gained clarity after visiting Kedarnath is mind-blowing. I don’t know if that happens for real or not, but it gives me hope that there is someone above looking after me.

In 2026, we are witnessing people expressing their low-budget experiences and not being ashamed of them. Beyond the glamour of a 21-year-old influencer buying a Mercedes, I love it when a fresher flexes his rented home tour with a 25k salary. That’s a win for all of us in the middle class.

I hope all of you guys get to witness this creative side of social media.

It’s an era of social media. “Social media” is another term for social as well as general awareness; a good selective algorithm would take you somewhere else.

Guard your attention. Whatever you consume, consumes you. So with that take what’s going to help you grow and have a richer broader mindset and block out when it becomes draining.

The instagram algorithm depends on your interests. If you go ahead for good content it will be beneficial for you otherwise instagram will be just an entertainment platform :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:.

It really depends on how we choose to use social media. These days, it feels like everything slowly revolving around it, but how we handle it makes all the difference.
