May have been part of a generation that grew up when legislation to ban child-focused TV advertising had been in effect. If you don't use IG, it's easy to miss that it's become a cesspool of advertising. Both "Promoted Post" garbage as well as Influencer's sponsored posts.

more than facebook or youtube? Why?
(my main problem with youtube, btw, is the weird addictive videos they have, but I would not vanish it because it adds a lot of value to me and others via courses)

Under which moon did this lady live for the last decade? Instagram is probably the single piece of technology I would wish away the instant I got a magic wand.
