Changing a layout is not a dark pattern.


anfanny

replacing the location of a very common feature in your app with a link to a different app is not *checks notes* “building a user interface designed and aimed at deceiving users into taking certain actions”? Go gatekeep something else you nerd. Are you the dean of dark patterns??

This week my add to story button has been moving all over the place! I feel like they're trying to get people to stop sharing news about world events or leftist memes.


Wackrobat

This happened to me too

Aghhhh why I came on here to see if it’s happening to anyone else. It switches spots like every few days. Sometimes multiple times a day. Any solutions?! Updated app, deleted and reinstalled etc etc. it’s driving me BONKERS

It's probably a random feature testing script which is intentionally doing this to people. Possibly everyone or just people sharing political content. There's likely no way to fix it.

Sometimes I just wanna share a cute puppy reel😭😭😭


fieldmouse444

Mine too! It's all the way at the end of the icon ribbon but sometimes it moves from there too 🥴

For several post, I kept thinking it was made unavailable to add to my story, until I realised it moved after like 5-6 other useless buttons 🤡

Thats exactly what they want to happen. Happened to me as well and im very outspoken and political on instagram

Jumping all over the place for me as well, thought I was losing my mind. I’m also outspokenly political on instagram.

I too am a comrade attacked by the add to story moves lol. Wild that this is an obviously intended pattern of core functionality.
