Controversy Instagram, on trial for using the mobile camera to intentionally spy on its users
Instagram prepares two big changes
related to stories (the ephemeral posts that last less than 24 hours and that are displayed at the top of the main screen) for the next updates of its application.
Some modifications that focus on the way the social network shows us the
stories
and what can be published in them.
A series of changes that seem
inspired by the
Chinese
social network
Tik Tok, which is very popular with teenagers.
Instagram,
stories
and
feed
photos
The first change Instagram is shuffling is removing the option to share
feed
posts
in Stories.
A change that
could reduce the visibility and reach of the posts
of some profiles.
This is a relatively common option that users use to display photos shared by other users in their
stories
for a period of 24 hours
.
In addition, it is also a technique that
influencers
use to give visibility to other profiles or a resource of their own to
maximize the reach or refloat old images published by themselves
.
Its limitation, according to the tests that Instagram is doing,
would have the objective of avoiding the repetition of content already published
.
The social network Instagram
has disabled the option
to share posts in stories to some users in the countries where this test is being carried out.
The purpose, according to the social network, is to offer
more specific content
to improve the experience of its users.
Those affected by these changes came across a notification in which Instagram indicated that the rest of Instagram users "
want to see fewer posts in stories
."
Meanwhile,
Instagram claims that at the moment it is only a test
that is being carried out in certain parts of the world.
Instagram works on a
vertical
feed
for Stories
The second of the great changes that instagram is working on is a redesign of the
stories by
changing their horizontal
navigation to vertical navigation as it happens in Tik Tok
.
This change in
Instagram, still in development
, has been discovered by computer scientist Alessandro Paluzzi, when reviewing the application code.
The tests have been
officially confirmed by Instagram
to the publication TechCrunch.
The network maintains that it is "
a prototype
that is not being tested" on the social network.
