Introduction:

According to Instagram CEO Adam Mosseri, Instagram is developing a feed that only shows content from Meta Instagram is Testing a Dedicated Feed for Posts from Verified Users and heritage-verified users. When you tap the Instagram logo in the app, the new toggle will be displayed next to the “Favorites” and “Following” options.

“We’re testing a way for people to explore their Instagram feed and reels by toggling to only Meta Verified accounts,” Mosseri posted in his Instagram broadcast channel. We’re investigating this as a new method of personal control and a way for companies and creators to be found.

After reverse engineer Alessandro Paluzzi discovered that the code in both the iOS and Android Instagram applications was showing a new feed filter that would display Meta Verified subscribers, Instagram informed TechCrunch two months ago that it was not testing such a feature.

Instagram probably sees the new feed as a method to advertise Meta Verified memberships and pique curiosity among users, given that it now gives them a chance to gain more attention. Users of Meta Verified get access to a blue checkmark, improved customer service, greater visibility and reach in search and comments, exclusive stickers, and more for a monthly fee of $11.99 for the web and $14.99 for mobile.

With the new Verified-only feed and Meta Verified in general, Meta is unmistakably taking a page out of Elon Musk’s playbook. The social network launched paid verification for $8 per month through its redesigned X Premium subscription plan after the Tesla CEO purchased Twitter (now X) last fall. Users that subscribe have access to several benefits, such as a Verified tab in their Notifications. Other features of the service include support for longer posts and an edit button.
