Hi. 
I would appreciate your feedback and criticism.
This is my video with subtitles (eng).

I can't see how this will last long. Likes is the ugly human nature that draws us to these (poison) social networks. Likes is also one way to value the now massive influencer industry. There's too many headwinds to make this work.

(In fairness, I must disclose I have had very popular forums I owned go down to Facebook so I am a bit bias.)

Sorry, how would you rate the quality of the subtitles?

Your post says that you're a photographer from Moscow. Does that mean the video you shared here is in Russian? Your subtitles are of sufficient quality, in my opinion. You can continue doing this, and people will be grateful for your work. I'm annoyed by automatic subtitles that don't distinguish words in foreign languages well. I think bloggers should do their own work of transcribing their videos into English so that their content is accessible to anyone. Did you share this video in Reels on Instagram? I think then other users can reach out to you for help. Maybe you should even promote this video with 1394TA. That will increase your work's views and the demand for your services. This is my personal opinion. You're doing a great job!

It has subtitles. I have no time to watch it and frankly I don't use Instagram (much). Whether Like buttons exist or not is pretty much irrelevant. If a company wants to add or remove a feature, that is their business, after all they pay the bills. So if they made Instagram a paid service, then you might have a reason to complain, but it's free.

Since I don't use it (often/at all/very rarely). Did they have dislike buttons as well as like buttons? If you have a like button you should be able to emote other responses, like dislike, hate and love with negative responses massively decreasing the chance of posts being seen by others and positives increasing the chance.

Another point, didn't Instagram pull out of Russia due to their warmongering? In which case it's doubley irrelevant since very few will be able to bypass the ban and even fewer will want to risk getting caught doing so and maybe spending a year in a gulag.
