*le sigh* Since I’m complaining about digital stuff today: is it me, or is there now like a 50% chance that you’ll repost something while trying to scroll past it on the Insta app? Do I just have horrible thumb control?

I keep saving things to a collection when I just want to read the full caption

Hah! Yes. I may need reading glasses. Or a lorgnette.

I did this while trying to like someone’s very personal post, and even though I undid it instantly, a bit of me still internally expired out of sheer mortification

O god that’s exactly what I’m worried about - how do you undo?

Just hit the repost button again. Presumably it stays visible until the feed refreshes, but seeing as Instagram seems to refresh every 30 seconds with another dozen ads and posts from random strangers, it will disappear pretty quickly.

And I’ve just found the “your reposts” tab, so you can do it even if you lose the original post in the churn. Jeez, though - would a “confirm” setting be so bad?

With every update, it gets less and less pleasant to use.

My strike rate is higher than 50% to be honest... 😁 #DumbThumbs

If you were in the US, you'd be under a dogpile of thumb control activists by now. (I am pro gun control. Gun control activists are the best. I am just making a joke about something that isn't guns. Please don't dogpile me.)
