God I hate Instagram, no wonder why I don't use it. When searching through tags you can't search via chronological anymore, it's either "top" or "recent top" and recent top you'd think is chronological. Nope! It's basically the most recent posts but has a higher like or view count. So you can get posts from a few days ago, then one in February and then one in July and then one from a week ago. It's ridiculous.

And the other thing I noticed is if you search through someone's feed, no matter if you follow them or not, you'll get ads! Look I get that ads are something the site will have, it sucks but like sure. The app needs to get paid somehow. But why in the middle of people's feeds? That is ridiculous!

I hate the internet.

I wouldn't mind ads except I still get ads even when I'm a paid subscriber,

Then why are you seeing ads at all?
