if you friend someone can you see their stories

It depends on the platform. On some social media platforms like Instagram, if you become friends (follow each other in Instagram's case), you can usually see their stories. But some people might have privacy settings that restrict who can see their stories even if you are friends. For example, they can set it to only be visible to a select group of people.

Not necessarily. In Twitter, for example, following someone (equivalent to friending in some ways) doesn't always guarantee you'll see all their tweets (which can be considered as status updates). They could be using features like protected tweets where only approved followers can see their updates. And some people might also use third - party tools or settings within the app to limit the exposure of their updates to a particular audience.

No. When you restrict someone on most social media platforms, it usually means you limit their access to your profile and your content. In return, you also won't be able to view their stories or much of their content as the restriction is a two - way block in terms of privacy settings. It's like building a small fence between you two where neither can cross over to the other's side easily.

No. Blocking is a more extreme form of cutting off contact. When you block someone, you completely sever the connection, and you cannot view any of their content, including their stories.

No, you can't. If someone restricts you, their stories won't be visible to you.

No, generally, on most social media platforms, the person who pinned the story cannot see specifically who has viewed their pinned stories. The viewing metrics usually only provide general information like the number of views, not the identities of the viewers.

As of now, Instagram doesn't have a feature that alerts the story creator when someone screenshots their story. However, this might change in the future as Instagram often updates its features. But currently, you can screenshot without anyone knowing.

Instagram doesn't provide a feature that allows you to see if someone has screenshot your stories. This is mainly for privacy reasons. Some people might feel uncomfortable if others knew they were screenshotting. Also, from a technical perspective, implementing such a feature could be complex as it would involve constantly monitoring user actions in a very invasive way. So in short, no, you can't tell if someone screenshots your Insta stories.

No. If you block someone, they can't see your stories at all. Blocking completely cuts off their access to your profile and any content you post, including stories.

If you restrict someone on most social media platforms, they usually cannot see your stories. Restricting is a way to limit someone's access to your content, including stories.
