Instagram will recover a function that users have been asking for years

Instagram works on a new option that will allow you to change the disposition of your 'feed' publications, which you could up to now be visualized according to customization algorithms based on users' experience, so you can see the publications of the accounts that They continue in reverse chronological order.

"We want to make it clear that we are creating new formats, providing users with more options so they can decide what is best for them, without forcing everyone to change to a chronological order," said the social network from Instagram Commons .

At the moment, the company has not revealed more details about this modification, apart from the two options in which they work, and added that at the beginning of next year they will reveal novelties about this change.

It was last June when the Director of the Social Network, Adam Mosseri, explained the functioning of the algorithms, with which he began to work for years after this social network launched in 2010. In its beginnings, Instagram worked with a chronological order Inverse, so that users could visualize the publications with the order with which they had published them the profiles they followed.

With the growth of the platform, in 2016, users did not see 70 percent of publications, and almost half of their closest friends were lost, as Mosseri explained. In this way, the social network began to use a series of algorithms to customize their experience.
