Dear Diary,
The reason I have given this title is because it is true. It was a weird and funny experience. You call it an experience is because you try something which may or may not workout. If it is funny, you get to share a laugh when you are 70 and telling a story to your grand kinds!
Since my Instagram is private for a very long long time, I decided to make it public. Yes. Public! Crazy, right?! So, I did make it public. Now, the issue was, I already had 500+ requests which I had not accepted for obvious reasons. Making an Instagram account public approves those requests. So within a span of ten minutes, my follower count went up to 700. I was happy, but after sometime, it started to get really weird.
There was one DM that said “Are you Google, because you have everything I’ve been looking for” I mean like, bleh. I freaked out and made my account private again. Yes! I did that! And after that, I spent literally one hour to remove all the new followers. I know it’s crazy, and to be honest, I laughed a lot later on.
On telling my sister and a friend, they went bonkers! It was that hilarious. Yes it was! Why I freaked out and felt weird is because I observed one thing about the usage of social media apps, especially in India, is that, people are desperate, neither in a good way nor bad. They’re just… desperate.
One thing I don’t understand is that people – especially guys. Not all- as soon as you accept a request they will flood your DM with messages. People who have private Instagram accounts will relate to this. And, I have seen the posts few social media influencers post on their stories about the horrible messages they get but they stand up for it.
I am not saying I have received such DMs, but there was one time, -I don’t even remember it- the reason I made my account private and never made it public again, until this time and again made it public because for such a long time I had kept it private and it really, really felt weird to have a public account. Yes, i have been told to make another account which would be public, but I am still working on it. I even don’t get the concept of having two accounts, of the same name where you post the same pictures/ videos in both the accounts. What’s the use of having a private account then?
This is not a rant, but just what has always been on my mind. This is one thing I will not forget. It was funny, as well as weird.
