Silo Profile Feeds

  • 2022-10-05 Instagram Is Now Putting Ads In Your Profile Feed

    The profile feed refers to the vertical scrolling experience activated once someone taps a thumbnail on a user’s profile. It doesn’t refer to the profile grid, which will remain free from advertising.

    Note defining use of profile feed as a "vertical scrolling experience" of the complete/full posts shown when someone taps on a thumbnail on a user's profile, thus posts from that user (in contrast to a news feed or home feed).
