for some time, the Social media coordinator has been improving its usability algorithm so that users see content that is increasingly related to what they like. In addition to personalized feed with favorite profiles and the old Close Friends, another newly created form is the Instagram Blend, which is basically configured as a Instagram match, similar to what the Spotify already does.

Once your friends accept the Instagram Blend to feed with videos based on what they liked will be created. The most interesting thing is that, whenever a new video is accessed, the feed will also be updated. This way, when you open the platform's chat (DM), you will be able to see only the videos that your friends also like.
