I mean that makes sense. People entered the new hot thing on the market but it’s still very half-baked. No hashtags, no following only tab, no likes tab. If it wasn’t for the sign up via IG, this would’ve been DOA.
Imagine if they just had feature parity with Mastodon. It would’ve probably replaced Twitter by now.
Holy crap, this is bad in another level
Instagram I don't believe has it either, and was a major breaking point for me years ago when someone coaxed me into trying it. Their "algorithm" has no place in a followers-only tab, so they will likely never add it.
Instagram has a following tab, you have to tap the logo at the top and switch it. It also reverts back to the algorithm frequently so have to constantly switch it around.
