Russia's ban on the American photo-sharing app Instagram, Russian developers have developed an Instagram-style 'Rosgram' application.
An application called Rosgram has been introduced by investors ahead of the March 28 deadline. It is not difficult to say where the group was inspired to develop this application.
Russia has banned Instagram and Facebook, calling them "extremists."
Pictures of the app available on Rosgram's website show that the platform bears a striking resemblance to Instagram. Like the layout, the symbols, even the pink and orange logos feel like Instagram.
In a shared post on Russia's popular messaging application 'VK', the co-founder of Russiagram says that our team is in direct contact with the cleaners who have access to Instagram. We will not waste this opportunity, but will compete with rivals from this platform of Russian reputation.
The app will be available for influencers and bloggers next week after consulting with sponsors and investors.
The war between Russia and Ukraine is almost a month away. Russia accuses the United States and other Western nations of waging a vicious campaign against Russia.
Russian officials have accused Ukraine of waging an anti-Russian campaign against US technology company Meta over the war, demanding a ban on all its social media platforms, which the court said in a ruling. Agrees with the prosecution's demand that Facebook and Instagram should be banned in the country because they are involved in promoting extremist activities, but did not ban WhatsApp, the app used for meta messaging. Will go because it is not a public platform.
Remember that Instagram is one of the most popular social media platforms in Russia on which a large number of Russian influencers and businessmen depend for income.
According to reports, Instagram has been banned since March 14 and Russian bloggers are expressing frustration over the lack of access to the platform.
A Russian fashion blogger, who has more than 3 million followers on Instagram, wrote angrily that I am in a state of rage and this cannot be accepted.
In a video, Russia's leading TV star told his more than 20 million followers about the ban on Instagram, saying that it was as if a piece of heart had been torn apart and life seemed to have gone too far.
