Are you using the app or browser? I just use Safari on iOS and I only follow my two kids and I just go back years of posts and there’s nothing from strangers on there.
- Crash0v3rid3 5y agoI’m using the app on iOS if that makes a difference…
- otachack 5y agoIt does! The native apps show a plethora of ads while the web app shows nothing. Crazy interesting but I imagine most users use the app.
- makeitdouble 5y agoCan’t it be because of ad-blocking ?
- tshaddox 5y agoYou might be using one of those tabs that I never go to. The leftmost tab with the home icon only shows posts from people you follow (and ads).
- mech4bg 5y agoThat’s not true. It forces reels on you now (maybe feature flagged?), all kinds of random people you don’t follow. Instagram has become a hot mess.
- ehnto 5y agoHow long has it been since you updated the app? It used to work that way, but they changed it. It was a really disappointing shift. If you have a pending update from ~last year, don't update until you have to. I only get a few new posts from friends each day, so it's three scrolls and bam, random accounts and content ads. To see old posts from your friends, you have to click a button that says "See archived posts" after the last new post by a friend, but before the inserted ads and strangers.
