A new social media application for Russians. Yes, we are talking about Rossgram. The Russian tech entrepreneurs are designing an application as a new Social Media platform for Russians namely Rossgram. Now you all must be wondering what does Rossgram look like.
After declaring Facebook a terrorist organization, Russia’s media regulator, the Roskomnadzor, banned Instagram, a Facebook-owned app, in Russian after Facebook narrowed its content moderation policy only for Ukraine, stating that it would be wrong if Ukrainians are stopped from expressing their aversion to the Russian invaders and allowed Ukrainians to post hateful messages for Russia.
But, reports have inferred that around 80 million users on Instagram are Russian. Along with the ban of such an extensively used social media application in a country, comes a need of launching another application that will help serve similar purposes. Thus, Russia is now going to launch a new application for their citizens that will work as a substitution to Instagram and will be called “Rossgram”. No one will be able to use Instagram in Russia and if anyone wishes to be on social media, they will be using this Rossgram once it is launched.
Last year, it was Yappy, a replacement to TikTok, China’s social media platform. And this year, Russia has targeted Instagram. So, what does Rossgram look like? Is Rossgram a copy of Instagram? How will Rossgram work? So many questions are there but no answers. All these questions will be covered here and you will be able to know everything about Rossgram by the end of this article.
