Instagram is one of the most popular,social media platforms and it goes with,us saying that likes on Instagram posts,are extremely valued by its users,boosting one's popularity and,credibility on the platform,however opinions change over time and at,some point you might decide that liking,a specific post in the past was an error,whether you're trying to unlike some or,all posts you've come to the right guide,manually on liking posts in the,Instagram app is easy first head to your,profile page by tapping on the profile,icon at the bottom right corner of your,screen then select the triple lined menu,icon to access settings tap on account,then select post evil light now you can,go through your liked posts in unlike,specific posts by tapping on the heart,icon if you're going to unlike a lot of,posts this process can be quite,time-consuming as Instagram doesn't have,a native way to unlike post in bulk,thankfully there are a couple of ways to,speed this up like tapping and holding,each light to post to preview before,opening unfortunately it's difficult to,unlike posts from the limited web,version of the app so you're better off,sticking to the official mobile app if,you're doing this process manually if,this process is taking too long,you can also attempt to use third-party,apps to remove likes on Instagram,however some risks come along with this,and the general consensus in the user,community is that you can do about 300,unlikes per day prior to triggering,certain Instagram algorithms that land,yourself banned that said if you want to,try these apps regardless of the risks,you're best off picking either following,link or cleaner for Instagram following,like is a social media management tool,and it must have for a serious Instagram,influencer it's a paid app but with a,huge array of features many consider it,worth the cost,at 147 dollars it's not cheap and even,though occasional sales bring it as low,as $88 it may be too much to ask for,many social media enthusiasts that said,if you're trying to unlike posts it's,one of the best ways to do it following,like gives you the option to create,custom unlike schedules that let you,unlike post over several days without,triggering a ban and since it's a,desktop app it can be managed from any,computer without risking your phone's,security for those on iOS looking for a,free app you might want to check out,cleaner 4ig the base app is completely,free but you can get an upgraded,professional version or a cloud upgrade,if you so choose cleaner for eiji is,easy to use and navigate thanks to its,really great user interface it allows,you to unlike Instagram posts in bulk in,just a few taps you can also block and,unfollow users in bulk some users have,reported that it doesn't scale well,though so if you have tens of thousands,of followers or are following tens of,thousands of accounts it may become,sluggish and difficult to use if you,liked this guide make sure you subscribe,for all sorts of videos covering,Instagram and other technology and do,not forget to check out one of these,videos we think you might enjoy

What Will Happen When Instagram Removes Likes Permanently
What Will Happen When Instagram Removes Likes Permanently
- I think mental health
and happiness is something,we need to be very conscious of.,I think we're living in
a very insecure society,,over-coddled society,,and I'm not sure that people can handle.,Do you know what would
happen if Instagram took away,verified blue checks?,- In Australia this
actually recently just hid,likes on Instagram.,- I'm aware.,- Which has been interesting.,- Which I'm a huge advocate of.,- Really, why?,- I think that people have
become to one dimensional,in knowing what there
audience is looking for,,completely predicated on the
arbitrary number of likes,,and I think it has limited creativity,,and expansion of people's horizons,,and I think it's an
extremely healthy change,,and I'm hoping it becomes
a global, permanent change,,I really do, and I'm somebody
who gets a lot of likes.,I just think it will be
better for more people.,- How do you think it will
impact influence and marketing?,- Don't forget there's back end analytics.,A brand cares way more about
awareness and relevance,than it does about how many likes,,so I don't think it's as
negative to big influencers,as they may think.,- Okay, so, I'd be interested
to see how the changes,affect people's usage of Instagram.,So, I guess what do you think
we should be looking for,,what sort of content forms
and apps can we be looking for,if Instagram starts to die off,,so what's like the next big thing?,- Tik Tok's the only thing
that has the potential,to play at that level, but
then it's doing things better.,Facebook is still a monster,
Instagram's not going away.,So what people struggle
with is when they've amassed,a big audience or they've won early,,when it becomes a game of best not first,,they get fearful.,My answer is to be better at Instagram.,- Better at Instagram,,there's only so many
hours in a day though.,- Yeah, but I mean the
cost of entry of success,is putting in the work and being better.,- Nobody's entitled to
success on Instagram.,- Yeah, I'll be interested
to see if the remove,follower count, that's
going to be interesting.,- I think all of it is a
good debate, I really do,,because I think mental
health and happiness,is something we need to
be very conscious of.,I think we're living in
a very insecure society,,over-coddled society,,and I'm not sure that people can handle.,Do you what would happen if Instagram,took away verified blue checks?,It would crumble the self-esteem,of 98% of the people who have one.,- It's really sad to think that.,- It's really sad.,I believe that to be true.,So as somebody who
benefits in a lot of ways,from all of these badges or metrics,,I'm not selfish enough to
want to want them to stay,when I'm super aware that
they come at the detriment.,Now, those people will stay insecure,because they will go to the next thing,,and I hope that hiding likes,,or me mentioning these scenarios,get people to start getting
into a place of trying to find,happiness for themselves,
not from outside affirmation.,- I think that's what
the mental health piece,is definitely a huge part of social media,,especially for the younger generation.,- Well, it just exposes truth.,All that social media is, is a mirror.,We didn't have that
mirror back in the day,,but, I promise you as a 43 year old,,there was ton of insecure
people in my high school too,,it's just that it played
out within the four walls,of the high school,
not at scale on social.,- Yeah, that's interesting.,I think I'm sort of fearful
for the next generation.,- That's classic generation ahead talk.,- Yeah.,- The same way that the
generation older than you,said the same for you.,Things will always change.,There was incredible articles written,about the kaleidoscope
when it was first invented,that is was going to ruin society,because kids spent their whole day,walking up and down, looking
at the world this way.,People are fear based.,People are insecure.,People have egos that their
generation is the best.,They're all bad traits,
and thank god people die,so that they don't stay in the system.

WHY IS INSTAGRAM ACTUALLY REMOVING LIKES? (just my thoughts)
WHY IS INSTAGRAM ACTUALLY REMOVING LIKES? (just my thoughts)
great morning so far I posted my very,first film photo on Instagram and you,guys seem to be liking it am i posting a,lot more kites yeah kai seems to like it,also you like it too buddy,oh yeah say hi to everybody okay say hi,the only thing that's not so great is my,lens is still broken so not only did I,shatter this filter which sucks cuz it's,like two hundred three hundred dollars,but it also bent on the corner it bent,just a little bit on this corner so now,there's like it just won't come off so,I'm hoping Canon can fix this for me I'm,hoping these guys can help I don't know,if it's just me but I always get a,little nervous walking into big,buildings like this I feel so not,important it's gonna mask you can Nick,are you gonna be able to fix this for me,yeah you yourself alright thanks so much,really appreciate it alright they're,gonna take care of my lens why don't we,talk about Instagram likes I don't know,if you guys heard but Instagram is,starting to hide like so you can't see,them anymore but first I have a nexus,interview I'm getting my Nexus card,finally look how cute I was as a kid if,you don't know a Nexus card is basically,just a card that lets you go through,some of the airport lines a little bit,faster it's really weird being an,airport when I'm not actually flying,all right wish me luck I passed got the,Nexus card gonna save myself some time,traveling from now on very exciting,all right so Instagram likes as of right,now I still can see people's likes on,Instagram just normally like it's always,been but I asked on Twitter who has the,new version where you can't see likes,and what do you think about it so far of,the responses that I looked at 13 of,them like tip about 67 didn't really,care it's kind of like I'm from it,doesn't really change anything and about,8 hated it it also sounded like,engagement is starting to go down which,makes sense because if you can't see,people liking your photos then why would,you like them that's just kind of a,logical progression I feel like what's I,don't know why I would like something if,you can't see the likes on there anyways,and so I've been really thinking about,this why would Instagram do this because,to me it sounds a little bit,counterintuitive as a business to do,this and now their reason is that they,want to focus on mental health and,making it a better experience for people,and I guess battling the whole social,media addiction and the dopamine from,likes and all that stuff just trying to,get away from some of the unhealthy,sides of social media but I'm a little,bit skeptical see the naive optimist,side of me wants to believe that and,wants to believe that Instagram is just,full of amazing people running it that,just care about their users so much but,then the more pessimistic the the,realist in me thinks this just sounds,like it's bad for business so why would,Instagram which is a business why would,they do this if they don't show likes,then maybe people are less inclined to,post because they're not getting that,dopamine rush from all the likes and,then maybe they'll like less because,they don't see the likes so overall this,just sounds really bad for Instagram so,I've been thinking what else could be,the reason maybe you guys have a really,good answer for this but the conclusion,that I think I've come to and I could be,total,100% wrong I'm just kind of venting to,you guys there's a lot of money that,Instagram is missing out on right now,that's happening in the whole Instagram,ecosystem and a lot of that money is,from creators and accounts doing brand,deals the brands are coming straight to,the creators and they're doing these,little brand deals ads on Instagram and,Instagram is not getting a single penny,from that transaction but now if if you,can't see the amount of likes on those,creator accounts and maybe the companies,that are that are doing the ads on these,creators accounts say they don't get as,much information about how well their,investment did or how well their ad is,doing on that account so maybe they,would be more inclined to use instagrams,built-in advertising tool maybe they'll,put out Instagram ads instead of these,Creator ads I'm starting to think that,that's maybe actually the the more main,reason why Instagram is getting getting,rid of likes and partly also because I,would imagine that the sponsored content,doesn't get that many likes I for one,have never ever seen a sponsored post on,my Instagram feed and be like oh this is,cool and and liked it or looked at it,usually is just complete garbage it's,just distracting and really really,annoying and for me it just puts a,negative taste in my mouth,so if the likes are less on creators,posts then it would be more more of an,even playing field I don't know I'm just,spitballing here but there's most likely,a reason for it,that has to do with money but either way,it's very smart of Instagram it's a,win-win for them they look great,publicity is great they care about the,people they want to

Is Instagram Removing Likes? EMKWAN TALKS 💬
is Instagram killing off likes and what,does that mean for the Instagram,generation what's up guys and girls,welcome back to episode 4 of the podcast,M cuantos with me your host and Quan,this is the podcast where we explore the,intersection between technology online,culture and living in the modern age now,before I go any further,a big big welcome to you or out there if,you are listening to me this is the,fourth time hopefully you have listened,to me but this is actually the first,time that I'm filming this for my,youtube channel so you can watch me or,if you prefer to listen to me then check,out all the links down below to where,you can find this podcast I think I'm,actually on every podcast platform that,is out there or major podcast platform,so Apple podcast Spotify I don't know,pop podcast master or whatever a few,others you should be able to find me,this is not the final setup I still need,to get myself a mic I still need to set,up a space in this studio room that I'm,using currently but it will have to do,for now so yeah just be easy on those,comments I hope the audio quality is up,to standard and you can listen to me or,watch me throughout the period but,anyway on to the subject at hand we are,talking about Instagram and some major,major news has come out of the recent,Facebook Developer Conference it took,place at the beginning of the week this,is a conference that takes place once a,year where Facebook announced some,changes to their products and Instagram,is one of those products now they made,some major announcements when it comes,to their main platform which is Facebook,and also to whatsapp but I want to focus,in this podcast on Instagram Instagram,is the platform that is I think one of,the if not the hottest social media,platforms I think if you compare it with,snapchat Twitter even Facebook Instagram,is one of the platforms that I see most,people using and spending a hell of a,lot of time on so what I'm gonna do in,this podcast is address a couple of,things number one what exactly has,Instagram officially an,it's about killing off likes that's the,first thing we're going to talk about,how does that impact you know the,influencer marketing or influencer,industry which is a multi-billion dollar,industry and number three how does it,impact us and what does that mean for,the platform itself so those are some of,the questions that I want to explore all,right let's start off with the first one,which is what exactly has been announced,well at this developer conference we had,this sort of information given to us,that a lot of these rumors appear to be,true Instagram is going to not,completely kill off lights but they're,going to hide the like number from,public view on your posts on Instagram,and they're gonna sort of replace it or,exchange it with a look at the bottom of,these people have liked this post and,the number is gonna be hidden,essentially from public view,my understanding is content creators,will be able to see exactly what number,of likes they've got but it's gonna be,hidden from the public view and one of,the things that was mentioned at the,developer conference is the fact that if,you go in and you can physically see the,people that I've liked it but then if,you really wanted to you could perhaps,scroll down and count them one by one,just to get a number and this is,interesting because the other thing that,was mentioned was the fact that this,isn't gonna be rolled out,internationally yet it's gonna be only,rolled out in the Canadian market and,they're gonna be testing this to my,understanding with a number of different,accounts but in all honesty with,everything that has gone on with privacy,and the whole sort of screening that for,the most part Instagram has got when it,comes to mental health and its impact on,society and young people particularly I,think this is gonna be rolled out,perhaps internationally on the Instagram,as a platform it's definitely one of,those platforms that when they bring in,changes are major changes if you want to,know what I'm talking about,back in I believe it was December of,2018,I actually posted up a video and you can,check that out on my youtube channel I,post a card somewhere on the side or,later on you can google this if you're,listening to me on the podcast where,there was a glitch a very sort of,short-term glitch but it was a major,glitch when it came to the the the sort,of outward the outline the platform and,how it sort of presents a post where,they changed it from a vertical kind of,scrolling position to something that you,have to slide through almost like a,stories view so that was very very,interesting to see how Instagram has,been in the media a fair bit because it,was it's been criticized with affecting,young people's mental health it has an,impact on society with the view of you,know photoshopped images and the,pressures that that puts on young people,just general people overall I don't,think it's really age-related but one of,the things that

How to Hide Likes on Instagram
How to Hide Likes on Instagram
so the massive massive update from,instagram that they've been testing,since 2019 is finally here,the option to hide view and light counts,and i mean the option because,they're not just making this across all,profiles,mandatory they're giving you the option,to turn off likes and views,on your own post or on your entire,account,so i'm going to make this quick video to,show you exactly how to activate it,because based on a lot of user feedback,they did not,make this the default on instagram,they're giving you the choice,which i think is really really huge and,really really great,that they chose to do it this way and i,got this update exactly,five minutes ago so if you don't have it,yet update your instagram and then,you'll have to wait these take a few,days to get to everyone,let me show you how to do it on a post,click on a post,and here if you press the three dots on,a post right here,you could then hide like and view counts,on that specific post but you can do,this account wide,also so let me go ahead and hide this on,this post,and look what happened it just basically,got rid of the like and view counts,but i could still click here to see that,so i could still see that on top,but it will be hidden it will just kind,of look like this when someone views,this post,let me show you how to do this account,wide let me go back here,and let's go to settings press the three,lines right here and then go to the,settings tab,and here let's go ahead and go to,privacy,and under privacy if you go to posts,you will see a new option as long as you,have the update it says hide like,and view counts let's go ahead and turn,this on,let me just show you what it means you,won't see the total number of likes and,views on post from other accounts,you can hide like counts on your own,post when you create them,by going to the advanced settings and,turning on hide like and view count so,i'll show you this in a second,but now let me go back to the home page,and as you scroll down there is no like,count here it's gonna show you just,couple people,but i can click and see the view and,light count this way,okay so it is hidden on the home page,but it's not completely hidden meaning i,could still access it if i really wanted,to,but if i scroll down i won't see that,number over here now,and let me go ahead and press the plus,sign to create a post,and i'll just choose the post option,here on this page,and let's say i want to just post this,image here let me press next,and next and here on this page if i go,to the advanced setting,down here advanced setting click that,you could see right here when you make a,post,you could actually turn this on so it,will hide,like and view count on this post so you,have to do this when you actually post,to make sure this is activated so a big,big update,but they chose to make this an option,rather than,forcing you and making this the default,on instagram so i think that would be,useful,but let me know in the comment section,what you think of it and i'm also,running a discount on my course for,growing on instagram and monetizing your,instagram profile so i'll put that in,the link below too if you haven't check,that out,there's a free 35 minute training as,well included in that link so i hope you,found that useful,and please give this video a thumbs up,and share it with other people that you,know that use instagram,and i'll see you next time

Instagram is removing likes?
Instagram is removing likes?
What? No way.
Instagram might hide the number of likes,a post has.,So what Instagram is considering, is
making it so that for me as a viewer on,my feed, I won't be able to see any of
the number of likes on any of the posts,I'm looking at as I'm scrolling through.
But I will still be able to see how many,likes my photos get, but no one else will
see how many likes my photos get. I think,the like button, in my opinion, is the
most influential invention of the last,decade. I did some research on it and the
like button was actually invented just,as a way to reduce redundancy on the
Internet. So for example, if someone,posted that they're engaged, you're gonna
get tons of comments that just say,"congratulations!" over and over and over.
And then if someone comments maybe a,little more and leaves more of a note it
gets kind of buried by all of those,"congratulations" comments. So the like
button was originally invented just to,kind of allow that quick easy
congratulations rather than having to,type out congratulations and have it be
redundant. I think we all know it,turned into a lot more than that.,We're now at the point where we get
personal validation based off of like,numbers and we use it to compare how
valuable we are to other people, or how,good our artwork is to other people, it's
just...it's a it's a sickness now! It's,a disease! It's ironic because it was
invented originally to reduce redundancy,in comments but in my opinion, all it's
done is created redundancy in creativity.,If I say something has the
"Instagram aesthetic" you probably know,exactly what I'm talking about.,In other words, you see so much regurgitation on,Instagram and you see people, myself
included, just mimicking posts that get a,lot of likes and you kind of figure out
what's gonna get a lot of likes on,Instagram and then you stop sharing
what's valuable and what's creative and,what you're proud of, and you just kind
of share what you think will get a lot,of likes. So what if we removed the
number of likes? Would you think,differently about what you post? Would
you post more often? I think for me,personally I'd be more creative. I think
I'd be less afraid to post things.,Instagram stories were one of the most
refreshing things for me, for my,creativity because I felt liberated to
just create whatever I want and put less,pressure on it.,It was something that didn't have likes
attached to it, it didn't have comments,attached to it, it didn't have metrics
attached to it. It was just something,that was fun,
it got shown to my friends, and then it,expired in 24 hours. So honestly that's
one of the things that I think I got the,most practice in videography with is
Instagram stories because I wasn't,worried about the validation or the
likes or any of that nonsense.,So I wonder what would happen if that same sort of atmosphere is built into normal,Instagram posts? It would completely
remove this idea that certain things are,better than others because they have a
higher quantity of likes or not.,You could just go through your feed and you decide what you like and what you don't,like, and no one else's opinion matters.
That sounds like a good experience to me.,What if we didn't live in this world
where everyone was trying to get more,followers and trying to get instafamous
and trying to get higher numbers? What if,you were just deeply proud of the photo
you posted? What if no one knew how many,people liked it? Don't you think you'd be
a little more interested in expressing,yourself and being creative and sharing
things that mattered if there was no,quantifiable metric attached to it that
was publicly visible? So at the end of,the day, I hope something like
this happens. I'm seriously in favor of removing,the like quantity. Let me know if you're
stoked about the possibility of it being,removed or maybe if there's a reason
that you like having the number of likes,displayed? Yeah I'd really love to hear
your thoughts. Alright so with all of that,said, thanks so much for watching! If you
liked this video be sure to click that,thumbs up button so that I can have a
numerical quantity attached to how good,my artwork is! Oh my gosh, totally kidding
obviously. But I really do genuinely,appreciate you watching and I appreciate
you being here and I'd love to read any,comments or ideas that you have about
removing the light quantity from the,internet. Thanks for being here, thanks
for watching I'll see you next time!
