In the past, this has included things like the Versailles Run filter which turns people into an animated lady running down a hall, to the Slow Zoom filter that people made their own music video-inspired clips out of.
The latest effect to go viral on the platform is the ‘Who are my parents’ filter, also called ‘Please adopt me.’
