Instagram app no longer lets you post stories without allowing camera and mic access on ios

There is no reason to require this setting for users who aren’t posting live videos.

all meta's apps are suck ngl. i hate the way i can't paste image from clipboard in whatsapp chat without giving whatsapp permission to manage my storage.

It's probably compressing or resizing before upload.

idk when this sh*t started but in the older versions (as far as i remember), whatsapp didn't ask for this if the image was from my clipboard. that was one of the trick to not giving the permission to manage my files to whatsapp when sending images.
