The article is BS. Working-class creators are on MXTakatak and Moj instead of Instagram, and that&#x27;s where their audience is. Those apps are doing very well.<p>You don&#x27;t need an international messiah app to save the working class of India. They can figure things out for themselves.

Wtf is a working class creator? Have we reached peek societal dependence on social media and accompanying bullshit?<p>On that point, the label “creator” of the process of thinking of and shooting 5 to 10 second entertainment videos that are 90% crap, 9% bullshit, and 1% actual effort, is devaluing the whole process.

To be fair most of the &quot;content&quot; on either of these platforms can be actually labelled as &quot;content&quot;. If anything, it probably helped those young people get some real life skills rather than wasting their life in a digital social bubble.
