Meta’s has been listening to some concerns after all especially now after some pressure.

These changes very well could help parents moderate their teens. Meta’s head of product says these changes address particular 3 concerns in an Npr interview.

Will this be the end of the complaints and concerns geared towards Instagram, probably not.

    Yeah, I’m not sure. People are calling it highlighting, but it doesn’t fit any reasonable pattern to have been manually highlighted. Is there some sort of bad automated highlighting? Or just someone still learning what highlighting is even used for. Or is it just some sort of style thing?

      It’s highlighting, what’s wrong with that? I thought it was an improvement from my earlier posts where I was blocking out filler to narrow down the article.

      I highlight the parts I want to read if I were to revisit the article, to narrow it down and save time. Could be useful for users too who just want to get the story and not read a lot of filler.

        Yeah, you don’t need to put this much effort in. Bold/highlight one key thing for emphasis at most. Maybe two.

          It doesn’t take much time or effort to do. If I highlight one or two things, then when I read it again, I’l have to gasp read through a good portion of the article again.

          Sometimes there is more then just two things to highlight.
