Re: "God, I am SO glad that Polaroids still exist. I'm too youngโฆ"
my understanding is that the company that is allowed to use polaroid brand now would be happy to ploduce film with colours comparable to instax. they just can't.
and if you take a look at old polaroids that were produced by that old polaroid which went bankrupt, pre impossible project polaroids, you'll see the colours are nothing like today.
then if you find photos made first generations of impossible ploject brand, then polaroid originals brand (same company) you'll see they gradually improve the quality, but they can't make it as old cood polaloid was.
a) they didn't have patents, source, but only walls of factory with machines.
b) even when they bought the data, today regulations changed
and they can't use the same chemistry and ingridients like it was allowed before.
so the vibe you like is not intentional. though nothing wrong with liking it. lomography movement is based on liking how bad were some soviet cameras. (:

God, I am SO glad that Polaroids still exist. I'm too young to have used them back in the 80s but the modern ones are just so much fun!
