Yes! I love stories. They are a subtle way to share cool stuff and avoid to be seen as annoying if you are the type of person that likes to share nice things ^^

Exactly, and those who want to reply, can do so directly, not filling up a long group chat with messages that are meant for just the original person.

It allows broadcasting to a group and people to opt in to watch and reply.

What’s stories? Any article they’ve published about it? Is it like the WhatsApp “Status” feature? Which is more like a 24 hr tweet if I can say so.
