It used to be you saw what you subscribed to. Now every third posted is suggested. Many of them have paid to be suggested, not even talking about the ads which seem like every other post. It used to be about pictures, now it's all reels, loud and obnoxious.
Ahh, that's the same path Facebook went down a decade ago then. Yay, capitalism...
I know it doesn’t fix the fact the ruined main feed, but if you click on “Instagram” on the top left then select “Following” from the drop-down that appears, you will get a chronological feed of only the people you follow—no ads no suggested posts. Only reels if they were posted by someone you follow.
Right on! I never knew that!
They make it basically impossible to know about unless you are told. 😩
