How Instagram’s new features will impact you

Instagram has announced two new features to benefit its users, including the long-awaited reverse chronological view

In some good news for Instagram lovers, the popular social media platform is adding two new modes to the main feed.

Instagram’s parent company Meta says the app will bring back the option to view feeds chronologically if they want to.

Five years ago Instagram switched to a more curated version of its platform that was based upon an algorithm that the user had no control over. After years of complaints, Instagram has listened to its users and introduced two new modes, favourites and following.

The following mode will offer the user more variety and control over what they see. It will help users eliminate any content they don’t want to see. This includes suggested posts and a pre-chosen algorithm.

It will allow users to see the latest posts from accounts that they follow and in the order that they are posted.

As for the favourites feature, users will have the ability to star 50 accounts, which will prioritise them in the feed. This list will not be made public.

Instagram’s CEO Adam Mosseri says that targeted advertisements plays a valuable role in user experience. However, users should have the right to experience Instagram with a chronological feed.

Investors monitor Big Tech’s AI investments, with Meta thriving while Microsoft and Tesla face uncertainty over growth and returns.

Investors are reacting sharply to Big Tech earnings this week, sending a clear signal that massive spending must translate into real growth. Markets are becoming less forgiving as companies pour billions into artificial intelligence, data centres and future tech while returns remain uncertain.

Meta has delivered a standout performance, posting a 24 percent jump in revenue for the December quarter, fuelled by AI-powered advertising. The company is doubling down on its strategy, with aggressive investment in AI and infrastructure expected to drive a further 33 percent growth this quarter.

Microsoft and Tesla tell a more cautious story. Microsoft reported only modest growth in its Azure cloud business, raising questions about its exposure to OpenAI, while Tesla plans to double spending on AI and autonomous driving. Analysts warn of a widening gap between bold AI ambitions and what investors expect in returns.
