Hello all!
I have been using Instagram for a while, but at first never really got into it. I did not like that every time you got on, it put you back at the top to look at the same posts in time order that you just looked at. They tried to fix that by putting the most interacted posts up first, but that still did not help very much. However, I discovered the “explore” feature and it has completely reinvented Instagram for me.
The explore feature is accessed when you click on the search magnify glass along the bottom. This allows you to search specific things (people, posts, hashtags, and location) or it also auto populates pictures and videos of things that it thinks you might be interested in. When these selected for you things first pop up, they include things in your area, things people you follow like, and things that it might think you like. But, when you start actually liking posts with hashtags attached to them, it displays things with those hashtags.
For example, I love westies, color guard, dance, and makeup. So, my explore feed is full of that stuff. The complicated part is that you might like something by a spam page that has other hashtags attached that you might not notice, that have nothing to do with the post itself. That doesn’t happen often though, and is easy to weed out. If you have, or started an Instagram, I definitely suggest trying this feature out because it is so entertaining.
