Instagram and Snapchat are basically the same thing now, with one major difference: Everyone you know is on the first, and not the second.。

Instagram, quickly becoming the dad-rock of social media, has 300 million daily users versus 158 million on Snapchat. I didn't think this mattered until Snapchat shot itself in the foot with a small but significant update recently.。
It's all to do with Stories, which work similarly on each platform. Basically, you take a picture or short video and post it under your profile, where your followers—all of them, or a select group, depending on your settings—can watch it for a span of 24 hours.。
Used to be, if you posted something to your Snapchat Story and wanted to see who looked at it, you could swipe up to see a list of names. That's still true, but Snapchat now divides that list into categories: "My Friends" and "Other Snapchatters."。

number of randos follow me on Snapchat, and this was a pretty handy way to see if the people I actually interact with were looking at my #content. And yeah, okay, only 81 people checked out this snap, but even fewer—13!—were humans I know "IRL," as it were. Sifting through the mess to see if anyone I was personally connected to looked at my snaps used to be kind of annoying, and now it isn't.。

Snapchat will likely remain my favorite app for sending incredibly weird things to a handful of close friends—its selection of stickers, face-transforming filters, geolocation tags and so forth—which run circles around Instagram's features. But where Stories are concerned, Snapchat's in trouble. 。 And this isn't just anecdotal noise or purely speculative guesswork. As。
noted last month, user numbers show that Snapchat's growth slowed by 82 percent after Instagram released its Stories product in August 2016.
