To ask for someone to explain Snapchat etc filters to me

Please.

I’m in my 40s, so I accept I’m probably out of touch but seriously, what’s all the tinkering with photos?

On my fb is a mum from school who has a cute 1 yo dd. I’ve seen this baby in the flesh: she’s really sweet. Yet the mum keeps on putting some sort of filter on photos of said child, the result being that her dd has the appearance of a blue-eyed alien: huge, misshapen eyes with a tiny rest of face etc. Her friends make lots of comments about her “stunning blue eyes”.

Why?????? Why do people do this????

Why do people do anything? Confused

I don't have Snapchat and wouldn't know how to use it if I did.

I agree the filters look daft but even I can understand that some people just like them.

It's just a fashionable fad that'll make way for the next fad soon.

Don’t get Snapchat. You’re not a teenager. Avoid it
