Instagram began as a very basic social network, where only photographs could be uploaded. There were no stories, reels, direct, etc., since they were options that were subsequently implemented, trying to copy Snapchat, YouTube, and other platforms.
Well, it seems now Instagram will have a new functionsimilar to the one we can find on other platforms, where we can give “Dislike” or “I don't like«, However, it will not be a publication, video, etc., but will be oriented to the comments, thus can avoid the fraud of some people.
I don't like Instagram
It seems that the function is already in tests, less than internal from the finish line, so it is likely that iOS users can enjoy it soon, since they are usually the first to receive this type of update.
As we said, it will be a button implemented in the comments, not for videos or publications, with which the company would be trying to prevent certain users from being liked with multicuentas or bots To appear above, using fake spam profiles, winning raffles, etc GIVE DISLIKEsomething much more comfortable than denouncing the comment, because just no one did, and in this way it can be intuit that it is a message that might not have to be.
We are working on ways to help people better control their Instagram experience and what they are seeing in the application. We are testing a new button next to each Comment at a Reel or Feed post so that people indicate in private that they do not feel good with that particular comment or that they find it relevant. We are testing this with a very small group of people to start. Later, we can also try to move these comments down in the comments section to help create a better experience.
For now, as they indicate, they are in tests, however, when they usually comment on this type of new functionsit would be very close to leaving, and it is likely that in the coming weeks many users begin to see it in their applications. It is a positive thing for the community and that will serve to make these profiles of fraud, spam, and self -romotion, do not appear, and can be eliminated and detected by Instagram much easier.
And you, do you consider this important change? The truth is that for my part I think so, because there are many profiles that use bots to position false accounts that get to cheat people and gain raffles in a little legitimate way. If Instagram, a helped from the community, is able to detect and eliminate them or send them to the bottom of the feed of comments, it would be a way of seeing, cleanly, the best comments. Hopefully they also do it with videos and other publications. Leave us a comment if you think you are a good idea and what else would you add.
