How to change your Instagram algorithm to a chronological feed

[NelsonG]

Six years after switching from a chronological feed to an algorithm, Instagram has unveiled the option for users to control what is shown in their feed.

Now you can use the default algorithm that includes suggested posts, or you can choose between a chronological feed with posts by all accounts you follow. Separately, you can also choose to see posts from 50 of your favorite accounts. Adding accounts to your favorites list will also prioritize them on your algorithm controlled feed.

Thank you very much for these valuable tips! I have been promoting my blog on Instagram for a long time, but I did not know that such settings were. Yes, I use various Instagram filters, and I know how to use sites like https://create correctly.vista.com/templates/instagram-highlight-cover/ for additional processing of the visual on Instagram. But the extension of the application's modes is an extension of the application's modes for me. Which I am certainly very happy about. Thank you so much for sharing.
