VSCO is a breath of fresh air compared to the dumpster fire that is modern social media. It’s a tool first and a network second.
By removing the 'like' counter and the comment section, it effectively lobotomizes the most toxic parts of the social experience. Your kid gets to be an artist without the crushing weight of public approval.
Just be aware that the 'Spaces' feature and the general feed still mean they are interacting with the wider world. It's not a walled garden, but it is a much more sophisticated one.
