Friends who often stick to social networking sites will probably notice that the ranking of dynamic wall/dynamic news posts is basically based on the so-called “for your own good”, that is, the algorithm determines what content will appear in front of you early (of course, including advertisements). The only thing that can compete with this is a completely chronological latest news page. However, many people on Instagram may not have seen similar functions at all. But don’t be too surprised when you see this feature “return” next year. Because according to confirmation from company executives, this feature will be coming to Instagram again.
No longer kidnapped by the algorithm? Instagram’s latest feed sorting option confirmed to return next year
Although”Latest news” This page has always existed on the Facebook service, which is also owned by Meta. It’s just that many people may have long forgotten that Instagram actually existed for a long time… but the next year (that is, about five years ago) when it no longer adhered to the square composition policy, the function of sorting picture posts in chronological order was also removed.
Interestingly, withLet go of the insistence that you can only use mobile apps to post pictures, even the videoNo longer limited to 60 secondsAfter the policy within. Instagram uses algorithms to sort posts, but it’s still Facebook A belief that few of them still hold on to. There was even a recent post explaining the observation that chronological posts caused many people to miss important posts back in the day (in 2016). He believes that with such a sorting function, “it’s impossible for most people to see all the posts, let alone the posts they would care about.”
However, there are concerns in the US Congress that such services may have deliberate control or malicious use of algorithms. And after questioning Instagram executives on youth safety issues, Instagram finally softened its attitude. The positive indication is that the time-ordered dynamic post option will have a chance to return next year, and there will also be a “Favorites” option that you can decide your own priority on. Instagram also emphasized in a special post that these two options will be provided to users as additional options, rather than completely changing the original way of sorting news updates., it can also be regarded as the last strength。
As for whether choosing this option will really prevent everyone from seeing what they want to see, I believe we will know the answer when the function is launched (by the way, I basically use “Latest Updates” to read Facebook… so I don’t think there will be any problems).
