It should be more coherent to browse the app now that you won\u2019t lose your place because your feed randomly refreshes, and there shouldn\u2019t be as many disparate time stamps to juggle. Instead, you\u2019ll be able to manually push a \u201cNew Posts\u201d button when you want to refresh the feed.<\/p>\n<p>Instagram switched from a reverse chronological feed to a relevancy-sorted feedin June 2016, leading to lots of grumbling from hardcore users. While it made sure you wouldn\u2019t miss the most popular posts from your close friends, showing days-old posts made Instagram feel stale.<\/p>\n<p>And for certain types of professional content creators and merchants, cutting their less likeable posts out of the feed \u2014 like their calls to buy their products or follow their other social accounts \u2014 was detrimental to their business. Instagram and\u00a0Facebook\u00a0moved to hide these posts over time because they can feel spammy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBased on your feedback, we\u2019re also making changes to ensure that newer posts are more likely to appear first in feed\u201d the company writes.

In fact, the #DeleteFacebook trend seems to overlook the corporate parent company that owns Instagram, WhatsApp, and Oculus. Instead it focuses on just Facebook\u2019s app, indicating that the scandal blowback might not be as much of an existential crisis.<\/p>\n<p>If anything, the shift to the algorithmic feed caused much more of an uproar than any political issue or privacy scandal. While Facebook has become a core utility by bringing your real world identity to the Internet, Instagram is the pleasurable\u00a0escape from that real world. And people get a lot more angry when you mess with their behavior patterns than when you highlight some abstract threat like misused personal data.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Source: TechCrunch<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Instagram\u00a0isn\u2019t quite bringing back the chronological feed, but it will\u00a0show more new posts\u00a0and stop suddenly bumping you to the top of the feed while you\u2019re scrolling. \u201cWith these changes, your feed will feel more fresh, and you won\u2019t miss the moments you care about\u201d Instagram writes.
