Instagram co-founders Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger has left everyone in shock following their sudden resignation from Facebook after having a tense relationship with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg. They have been working under Facebook for thee past 6 years after Facebook aquired Instagram for a whopping $1 billion. According to a statement released by Kevin Systrom, it says

“Mike and I are grateful for the last eight years at Instagram and six years with the Facebook team. We’ve grown from 13 people to over a thousand with offices around the world, all while building products used and loved by a community of over one billion. We’re now ready for our next chapter”

They also said they were leaving to explore their curiosity and creativity again. According to insiders, tension has been building between Zuckerberg and the Instagram co-founders over the past few months and their relationship has grown cold. This is reportedly as a result of Zuckerberg’s plan to link Facebook and Instagram together thereby allowing Instagram users to share stuff on Facebook which violates the agreement they had with Mark Zuckerberg during the sale of Instagram. As if that was not enough, Zuckerberg also started pushing Facebook notifications inside Instagram and a Facebook button inside Instagram’s settings. Kevin was strongly against it.

Facebook and Instagram had an agreement which stated that Facebook would allow Instagram to operate independently but that had clearly not been the case. This clash also refresh our memories with a similar clash between Mark Zuckerberg and the founders of Whatsapp, Jan Koum and Brian Acton. Acton left a year ago and later tweeted “#deleteFacebook” following how the company handles users data and privacy.

Zuckerburg is turning social media into his own empire , where he reigns supreme.
His monopolistic style is killing healthy competition and innovation: if he can't buy you over, he steals your ideas and makes whatever made yours attractive, well, less attractive.

Big Ups to the Snapchat dude for not letting Mark completely take over.

In as much as I love Zuckerberg's personality I think he is overreaching, trying to over-achieve. He is trying to make others do what he never did: sell his creation.

don't forget he's the most powerful man in technology in the world right now, he can decide who wins an election in America by just writing a few lines of codes grin grin

undecided

Systrom's story in inventing Instagram is inspirational, because he taught himself coding. He was actually trained as a marketer and he learned how to code at a late age in life.
As someone with a background in marketing, it's a bit disappointing that he can't see the financial potential of a merger between the Facebook and Instagram platforms. All the same I wish him luck in his future endeavours.

That's called business.

Integrating Facebook and Instagram has been great itself. Infact, when u pay for ad on Facebook you can make it run on Instagram without haveing to go through the stress.

You can even link Twitter with Facebook where your tweets or retweet could always be posted as a status.

Their resignation is not going to be a problem. They'rejusy like kids who wants no changes to his toys.

Mark is a visionary and a business man, you can't make him rigid!

I'm sure those guys will think they're gonna be building a new app...

I trust mark, he'll copy everything and as u right no, make it even more attractive.

He's after YouTube already... It's just a matter of time!!!

I think he’s trying to keep Facebook trendy and active. Most young people no longer visit Facebook as much since Instagram kicked off.

It's called Black man's mentality and its been going on for decades. A Nigerian will never set foot in a Cocoa farm but he will buy chocolate products made by foreign companies like Cadbury and Nestle which were made using that same cocoa which grows in abundance in his country.

Mark sought investors too.
There is a difference between Sb buying up your company and having investors in there.
