@parislemon Instagram did that?

shawn roller ‏@shawnroller May 11

@parislemon couldn't agree more

David Perell ‏@david_perell May 11

@parislemon The decision makes sense but that was inevitable. Instagram just should have waited until Facebook’s “Places” was better.

Tucker Weinmann ‏@corsairstw May 11

@parislemon Not to mention you now can’t tap on a venue’s name to see photos older than when they made the switch to the FB database.

Adam Valentine ‏@adamcvalentine May 11

@parislemon was it really a "decision?"

David Perell ‏@david_perell May 11

@corsairstw @parislemon Yes… I think that’s the worst part of it all. They simply made the switch too early.

Per Stenius ‏@Fimpen May 11

@parislemon Agree. So much worse.

@parislemon You mean Facebook's decision to use Facebook's database over a competitor's.

Matt Galligan ‏@mg May 11

@parislemon FB's location DB is so, so full of dirty data and out of date crap. That hasn't changed in years.

Walter Elly ‏@walterelly May 11

@parislemon kind of like Apple replacing Google Maps in iOS?

Walter Elly ‏@walterelly May 11

@parislemon I wonder if Facebook/Instagram will face a backlash as well. I agree that Foursquare's product is vastly superior of course :)

MG Siegler ‏@parislemon May 11

@walterelly yes.

Tin Kadoic ‏@tinkadoic May 11

Sad. “@parislemon: Instagram's decision to use Facebook's much worse place database over Foursquare's has made the product worse. Stupid.”

Spencer Schoeben ‏@netspencer May 11

@parislemon ugh. just realized they did this. unacceptable.

Jason Stein ‏@jasonwstein May 11

@parislemon @walterelly Worked great for Apple Maps in the end.

Jeffrey Kalmikoff ‏@jeffrey May 11

@mg @parislemon rip simplegeo.

Steve Blackmon ‏@steveblackmon May 11

@parislemon FB should have acquired and merged gowalla's DB rather than leaving it out of the deal

MG Siegler ‏@parislemon May 11

@steveblackmon agreed.

Christopher Ferrill ‏@chrisferrill May 11

@parislemon Facebook ruins everything.
