I’m putting my 2027 predictions on the record.
Five shifts coming for content creators on Instagram: slower edits, real grain over polish, saves counting for more than likes, small communities beating big follower counts, and a voice nobody can copy.
The one I’d bet hardest on is #3. A like takes half a second. A save means someone wants to find your post again.
Save this and check my work in a year. Send it to the creator friend who still thinks 40 posts a week is the plan.
