    2-25-26 - Instagram Following Feed and YouTube Adds Voice Replies
    Feb 25 2026

    The Head of Instagram, Adam Mosseri, explains that the Following feed is not going anywhere, and the YouTube team adds the ability to reply to a comment using an audio recording of your voice. Additionally the company Emplifi shares their yearly social media report, and I do Wednesday Waffle.

    2-23-26 - Instagram's CEO on Trial Reels, Stories, and Reach
    Feb 24 2026

    The Head of Instagram discusses Trial Reels, Stories being available for longer than 24 hours, and what he'd love to see more of on Instagram. I agree with some of it and disagree with other parts, because it's important for me to speak my truth.
