With all the talk of Instagram changing things up and favoring video/reels, I wanted to do a quick snapshot of my feed as it is today.
Opening the app and scrolling, here’s what I experienced:
- Photo – Someone I follow
- Ad – Starz
- Photo – Someone I follow
- Photo – Someone I follow (verifiedâś“)
- Video – Suggested post
- Photo – Someone I follow
- Ad – Starz
- Video – Someone I follow
- Photo – Suggested post

- Ad – Audible
- Photo – Someone I follow
- Photo – Suggested account
- Video – Someone I follow
- Video – Someone I follow
- Ad – Starz
- Video – Suggested post
- Photo – Someone I follow
- Photo – Someone I follow
- Ad – Science37
- 25% ads
- 20% suggestions
- 25% video
- 55% content I asked for
I predict it will only get worse from here with more video, ads, and less content of the accounts I actually follow.
