More meme accounts are going private. Their owners say it’s a new way to gain followers on a crowded platform.
Over the past six months, some of Instagram’s biggest meme pages—like Shithead Steve, with more than 2.5 million followers, howitlook.s (8 million), couplesnote, (8.2 million) greatercomedy, (5.3 million), Pubity (5.1 million), and more—have locked down their accounts, forcing non-followers to request access in order to view their content.
A new strategy to get more followers.

“Lord, make us to walk in your way: Where there is love and wisdom, there is neither fear nor ignorance; where there is patience and humility, there is neither anger nor annoyance; where there is poverty and joy, there is neither greed nor avarice; where there is peace and contemplation, there is neither care nor restlessness; where there is the fear of God to guard the dwelling, there no enemy can enter; where there is mercy and prudence, there is neither excess nor harshness; this we know through your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Prayer of Francis of Assisi, 1182-1226) Daily prayer is courtesy of Don Schwager © 2018.

Can you beat the algorithms and brain pollution?
We’re not confined to what’s in our newsfeeds — we can use search engines to validate what’s real or not at any time. And while Google’s own algorithms exert influence, we can dig and compare beyond a single source or platform.
