aaronpk, not really. note that the first item in that list is just "post" which can still be a photo, a multiphoto, a video, a multivideo, a mixed multi photo(s) & video(s)
#
[tantek]
my guess is that this is a UX hack to try to bring together all the very different features they've launched over the years
#
[tantek]
it's not a post-type-first creation UI, it's a "which app/feature do you want to use?" UI
#
[tantek]
that menu can be renamed as:
#
[tantek]
Post, or TikTok, or Snapchat (or archive thereof), YouTube, Twitch
#
[tantek]
like picking an app from your mobile homescreen 😛
