Instagram’s New Algorithm Will Promote Original Content More
Instagram CEO Adam Mosseri has announced a change in the social media platform’s algorithm that would now “prize original material more,” as part of his vow to promote content producers. This means that material that is generated from the ground up will have a greater reach than content that is simply a rehashed version of something else.
Original Instagram Content Will Be More Valuable
Mosseri announced the change on Twitter, explaining that it is intended to give creators more credit for what they deserve. The statement emphasizes the importance of Instagram’s creator community.
“Instagram will do more to try and value original content more, particularly compared to reposted content,” he continues. As a result, creators who come up with new and original ideas have a better chance of being seen than those who simply repost other people’s work.

New tagging tools have also been added to the Meta-owned social networking platform. To begin with, there is product tagging, which is now available to everyone. This feature primarily allows creators to tag their products in order to gain greater exposure. However, everyone on Instagram now has the ability to tag things they are using or wearing in order to increase traffic to their profile, a specific business, or an Instagram account.
In addition, Instagram has included Enhanced Tagging, which displays a category next to a tag. So, if you have an influencer category, you will see it the next time you are tagged in a photo or video. The goal is for people to have a better understanding of who they are. By going to Profile -> Edit Profile, you can add this category. One thing to keep in mind is that this change will only occur if you have upgraded your Instagram account to a Professional account.
These changes will allow more creators and people to reach a wider audience and, as a result, earn money on Instagram. Creators, as previously stated, are an important component of the platform, and Instagram is anticipated to keep adding new tools for them.

Recently, pre-orders for the Apple Vision Pro were started. According to Ming-Chi Kuo, an analyst has reported sales of around 160,000 to 180,000 units of the Vision Pro. In context to the sales of Apple Vision Pro, Netflix Co-CEO Greg Peters revealed in an interview that there is no need for the Netflix app in Apple’s VR headset.
In that interview, Peters also defined that the number of subscribers can’t justify the attempts to port an app for a platform. In the future, there may be a Netflix app for Apple’s VR headset, but currently, Netflix is adopting a wait-and-see approach. For now, YouTube and Spotify have no plans for dedicated apps.
As we also mentioned in the recent post of the Apple Vision Pro, you can use the apps via the browser in the Vision Pro. Apple’s own Apple TV+ streaming services are available on the Apple Vision Pro, which features “Apple Immersive Video” with Spatial Audio and 180° 3D footage in 8K resolution.
Similarly, Netflix has also a VR app which was launched in back 2015, that also offers VR Content and includes a 360° video for the Stranger Things Series, but for now, it’s not available in Apple Vision Pro. Netflix has a ton of VR movies that you can also check out.

WhatsApp has undergone notable changes, introducing new colors and status updates for both its website and app. Whatsapp is currently in the process of rolling out a fresh update through the TestFlight beta program, named version 24.1.10.76. Within the app’s settings, the version is identified as 2.24.1.76, while the TestFlight build stands at 24.1.10(555067882).
WhatsApp beta for Android, in its 2.24.2.11 version, is rolling out a significant feature. Users can now create and share polls within their channels, fostering interactive engagement by collecting feedback, opinions, and preferences directly from their followers. The latest WhatsApp beta test for iOS, marked as version 24.1.10.76, is also geared up to incorporate this polling feature.
WhatsApp ensures that the choices made by channel followers during voting remain secure and anonymous. Currently available to beta testers, the feature to share polls in channels can be accessed by installing the latest version of WhatsApp beta for iOS and other Android phones via the TestFlight app. It will be available to everyone in the coming days.
While polls on various platforms often disappear within 24 hours, it remains to be seen whether WhatsApp will adopt a similar approach or introduce its own unique twist.
