Narcissists use Instagram to look cool
Narcissists use Instagram primarily to look cool. That's according to a 2016 study published in the journal Computers in Human Behavior. For the study, 239 undergrads who were active Instagram were measured on the Hypersensitive Narcissism Scale and asked about their motivations for using Instagram.
The authors write: "Narcissists can post and manipulate specific photos to make themselves and their lives appear to be a certain way. Instagram appeals to narcissists, because many interactions on it are 'surfacy' or 'shallow.'"
