Instagram Limits Political Content by Default, Gives Users More Control
-
Instagram now limits political content by default. Users must opt-in to see political content from accounts they don't already follow.
-
This change builds on previous efforts by Instagram to reduce recommendations of political content.
-
Users can adjust their settings under "Content preferences" to control how much political content they see.
-
The goal is to give users more control over political content while still allowing them to interact with it if they choose.
-
Parent company Meta says this expands on longstanding efforts to balance political content based on user feedback.
