The short version. Instagram has roughly 218x more sites overall (49.9K vs 10.9M). But the split flips by market: Wix Link over-indexes in Israel, Pakistan and Viet Nam, while Instagram runs the majority in Argentina, Belarus and Korea. Which one fits depends far more on your market than on raw totals.
