[br][p] Instagram might be working on a new feature that will release the pressure of users to rack up likes on their posts. The photo-sharing platform is testing a design overhaul that would hide the number of people that have liked the post, tweeted tipster Jane Manchun. [br][p]"We want your followers to focus on what you share, not how many likes your posts get," reads Wong tweet. "During this test, only the person who shared a post will see the total number of likes it gets."[br][p]
[br][p]Users would still be able to see the names of people who liked the post, but there won't be a number to show the total number of likes, the screenshots indicated. Only the person who shared the picture would be able to see the total number of likes.[p]Instagram is yet to comment on the new feature, but a representative told TechCrunch the design is just a prototype that is yet to enter the testing phase. The new design could have a positive effect on users who struggle with mental health problems that are caused by social media.[p]The pressure of becoming popular on Instagram and gaining more likes can take a toll on an individual's mental health.
