Right. It's meant for one post to run into the other but people don't often use it that way. It works well with longer videos. - Krusty Aug 12, 12:52
I guess that I'm surprised that people don't put more of their content somewhere that isn't so temporary -- nm - prayformojo Aug 12, 12:51 13
- You can save it to your page so it's viewable by people anytime but yeah, it won't be up top after 24hrs. - Krusty Aug 12, 12:54

- It’s more about getting people to engage. Also offers a LOT more room for creativity. -- nm - Judge Bane Aug 12, 12:53 1
  - Yup. You can add polls, question boxes and other things to engage with your friends and audience. You can do more in stories than you can in - Krusty Aug 12, 12:56

        Sure. If I like it. But that's different. I can't even view the story without someone knowing. It's weird. -- nm - oblique Aug 12, 13:01
      - huh. really? that's weird -- nm - prayformojo Aug 12, 12:57
  - I love them. -- nm - Judge Bane Aug 12, 12:54
  - I'd say the story:profile content ratio is at least 4:1 -- nm - prayformojo Aug 12, 12:53 1
    - I also don't ever have audio on with my phone so I totally don't understand stories, snapchat, and tiktok where audio is supposed to be prevalent - oblique Aug 12, 12:54
