Social media influencers are ditching Snapchat for other platforms.

Content creator Shaun “Shonduras” McBride, who has roughly 1.5 million followers on Snapchat, recently told AdAdge that he’s growing tired of the app not supporting him and other content creators. Instead, he’s moving to other platforms, such as Instagram and YouTube.

“I am now at a point where I am so far beyond Snapchat that I don’t really care,” McBride told AdAdge.
