Bro I am sooooooo tired of rolling through my feed, tryna get my fix of the homies ski content, and seeing these shit-ass spam pages, stealing content, full of broken english. And using a fuckin thousand hashtags. Id really like to see the good content posted on hashtags such as #nsfamous #squidskiing #drinkbutter .
All three of those are not common hashtags and are kinda park oriented, used for insta-edits and such, I am so far from interested in watching your 15th post of the day of some 5 second clip you stole off of a swiss ski racers page and posted to #drinkbutter. It’s so pathetic, fucking learn how to ski.

I just started reporting anyone of them that I saw as “spam”, but then I noticed they started using first names in their bio to try and throw insta off their trail. Glad I got some g’s in the chat and y’all didn’t just come at me

Shitty bot pages bloated with bot followers that steal successful posts so they can appear in the Explore tab and sell cringe t-shirts to gapers.

I used to report every one I saw but I've been fighting the good fight for so long and I'm so old, so tired...

I came out swingin, it cuts me especially deep because I want to pursue a ski media job path. Or at least media marketing. And the reality of it is that these pages are set up with some type of program that allows them to que and schedule posts, so they don’t have to do any work, it could be for set up for months in advance, hence why you’ll see a post that was relevant months ago with a generic caption. #1 source of skiing content baby.

Damn, imagine a world where you don't use fucking instagram or any other shitty social media site and you instead use NS for your ski content.



Oh wait, NS is worse. Never mind, carry on.

This is conjecture but I'll bet it goes even deeper than that. The selection of posts is automated, an algorithm is used to determine which posts to steal. Little to no knowledge of the sport is required and the same people are probably running hundreds of these pages at a time.

Once one of the bot pages makes a repost all the other bot pages it's associated with start liking and commenting and sharing which tricks Instagram into thinking it's a hot post, and voila it pops up on your explore.

Incidentally, even shadier folks are doing the same stuff on social media with, like, politics, but that's not as important.

Do people even follow hashtags and those spam accounts? Ever since they added that feature it's flooded the market of videos and hashtags have no meaning now.

I think the feature of being able to share someone's video on your story is more of some garbage feen shit. Then op can share that post of friend A sharing their post on their story...smdh those peeps I unfollow quick af

I don’t fw those insta pages at all. On the bright side, lately I noticed the quality of edits both on ns and ig has been so fucking good lately. You guys already know I used to be THE guy for hating on short ig edits and now I gotta say ive been impressed lately. The quality has been a lot better imo and im so stoked.

skicreative is ass but I will say drinkbutter has reposted some skiers I have not known about and put me on to their skiing, especially euro skiers.

you're not wrong, pages like drinkbutter can definitely create positive exposure for some unknown skiers. They aren't nearly as bad as a lot of other repost pages. But I just think it's particularly bad on instagram because it seems like the algorithms really favor respost pages over original content. I have no beef with the NS admins when they post a link to an edit that was posted only to youtube because I don't repost content as part of a larger problem on this website, whereas on instagram it definitely is.

My theory is that during the peak of winter a lot of people were rushing to post their clips on Instagram asap. But after resorts began closing people started posting clips that they had been saving and put more time into editing
