Instagram has made quite a few changes to its service recently, like letting you draw on your friends' photos and the ability to follow hashtags, and now it looks like another change is rolling out.
A new "Recommended for You" is now rolling out to Instagram users. The section will suggest posts for you based on posts that've been liked by other accounts you follow. The section will be clearly labeled and will include three to five suggested posts.
You can temporarily hide the "Recommended for You" section by tapping the three-dot menu above the post and then selecting "Hide".
Instagram did explain to TechCrunch that the "Recommended for You" section will only appear after you've viewed all the posts in your feed.
Many Instagram users were frustrated the last time that the service made a big change to their feeds, when it switched from a chronological view to an algorithmic one, and this "Recommended for You" section is likely to annoy some users, too. Since the feature can only be temporarily hidden, though, many users will just have to get used to seeing it in their feeds.
