I don't know about OP and other countries, but where I live it's got to a point where companies are basically sharing everything on Instagram only. A lot of them don't even have official websites, and those that do have websites don't update them and leave them to rot and die.
Wanna know which concerts are coming up to your favorite venue? Instagram. Wanna see the full menu and prices for your favorite restaurant? Instagram. Wanna chat with a human and get a real reply? Sorry, they'll only answer your DMs on Instagram.
It's infuriating, so I keep an Instagram account just to follow those brands and know what's up. I also follow some close friends, but I don't interact with anyone and I don't have any posts, they all think I'm weird in that sense, but I don't care.
So…. Facebook: RESKINNED Edition
Yep. Funny that facebook saw the writing on the wall and bought it years ago. A shame that so many people fail to learn from their own mistakes.
