Today, Instagram has introduced mute in feed, a new way to control what posts the user see on Instagram. The new feature lets you hide posts in feed from certain accounts, without unfollowing them. With this change, users can make their feed even more personalised to what matters to you.
When an account is muted, users can still see posts on their profile page and get notified about comments or posts they are tagged in. The accounts that are muted will not be aware that they have been muted and can always be unmuted to get their posts back in your feed. To mute an account, menu in the corner of the post should be tapped. From there, users can choose whether to mute posts, or mute posts and stories from an account. Posts and stories can also be muted by pressing and holding on a story in your tray, or from a profile.
