      A lack of pictures of my extended family.

      Videos of my nieces figure skating are the primary reason I haven’t deleted my account

        Try to get them to text them instead. Giant family text chains are a lot more fun (and chaotic) than generic social media.

          Yeah, text of his niece figure skating is the same thing as a video. Solid advice!

            You can put videos in a text thread. I’m on a 31-person thread that has been active for about 15 years. I promise there’s no shortage of videos.

              Do your text messages allow for decent res video of any running time longer than a few seconds?

              Mine don’t.

              By “text” here, do you mean Apple chat, SMS, or some other platform?

                  no that matters a lot. if it’s imessage only it makes sense but if it’s a combination of mms/rcs/imessage, someone is going to get images consisting of like four total pixels.
