#2I opened Instagram the other day and saw a grey error message show up across the top of the app... it said something about a React error. I didn't get to read it well because it quickly disappeared. I thought I was tripping. Good to know I wasn't.

Checking the source the class is "progressiveMedia js-progressiveMedia graf-image" so in essence they don't use tags for control. They could add in though.

#6I didn't know what single/multi-dex means so i looked it up.
Android application (APK) files contain executable bytecode files in the form of Dalvik Executable (DEX) files, which contain the compiled code used to run your app. The Dalvik Executable specification limits the total number of methods that can be referenced within a single DEX file to 65,536, including Android framework methods, library methods, and methods in your own code. Getting past this limit requires that you configure your app build process to generate more than one DEX file, known as a multidex configuration.
Do Android apps regularly encompass over 65.3k methods? I assume a majority of these would be framework type functionality, but it really seems that a multi-dex product would be near impossible to maintain.

Iirc, the reason you end up hitting the limit for 65k methods is that each library tends to keep independent copies of its dependencies. This simplifies dependency control, but ends up mushrooming quickly.

Usually most of the methods are from dependencies. Interestingly enough, some of Google's own libraries like Guava and Google Play Services are commonly what pushes apps over the limit.

Same here. Something about a debug error.
