Instagram Now Has 500M Users But Your Selfie Still Only Got 3 Likes

Bloody hell. Instagram has some big ol’ news, and on #NationalSelfieDay (in the United States) no less.

The digital home of #foodporn, #interiorporn, and if you search the right hashtag, #actualporn  has today announced that they’ve hit 500 million users, of which more that 300 million hit the app up daily. 

As for the number of likes being given each day, that number is in the *literal billions* (4.2 billion, to be exact).

“As you’ve captured and shared the moments happening around you, you’ve formed incredibly varied and diverse communities,” Instagram said in a statement, shouting out to illustrator, sneakerhead, and astronaut Instagrams, but rudely leaving out meme accounts. 

Mind you, the thing everybody’s absolutely losing it over is Mark Zuckerberg‘s celebration post.

The Facebook founder published a ‘thank you for making me filthy rich‘ post earlier today, and exceedingly eagle-eyed people noticed that, in the background, Zuckerberg had taped over his laptop’s camera.

And if we zoom in just a lil’ bit…

BAM! There is is. A taped up webcam, which seems like an incredibly reasonable thing for one of the most powerful people in the world to do.

But ho hum; people will talk. His microphone’s covered up, too.
