Stories are pictures in a different format, that are only visible to all followers for a limited amount of time (24h).
Stories can be saved to highlights and therefore viewed multiple times and indefinitely on the profile. Ordering highlights according to themes helps to create a better overview and utility.

→Spark conversation or quick reactions (Easier if stories are funny or if you share your opinion)
-Let your story empty out (Stories self-delete after 24h) and post afterwards again
