Simstagram suggestion

Everyone knows that Get Famous had lots of lost opportunities but they subtly tried to bring the social media fame side to the game with livestreams and Simstagram, even if its really shallow. And after seeing social media apps like Social Bunny, Trendi and Cupid's Corner, it made me feel like we really lost something bigger with Simstagram in Get Famous. But given that Simstagram is a base game feature why not update it? My suggestion is: 

• Create a Simstagram app for phones. Imagining that it would need limitations like the other apps it could work as our own public gallery, so we could only see our own profile and see the interactions from other sims in it (like Social Bunny). Some gameplay ideas:

- Post photos, earn likes and comments (+fame);
- Receive messages (the calls for invitation, advice, congratulations, etc. would turn into messages that we can answer later); 
- Post stories about: Review, advertising, dance/makeup challenge, diss/compliment someone (influencing their reputation and our relationship with its person) (+fame).

This is instagram's layout and what i imagine we could have in this app.

    I miss having a platform to work with photos and media influencer like a social media app that works with photos that sims can interact with and it can influence their life (emotionally or financially)

    I think it'd be great if we actually had the simstagram or something similar in-game.

    I think it could use the memory system like: We upload the photos and choose which emotion it should give to our sims


    It could also integrate the social bunny making it a notes category like facebook, twitter and other social media have (even instagram with threads)


    And it could also have subscruptions that we can earn money, reputation and fame from
