Although one would think that not much news can reach social networks anymore, the opposite is true. Recently, Instagram has been particularly busy, as several functions are being tested on it. The option to permanently "pin" some posts on your profile at the top is currently being tested. So when someone looks at your profile, they will always see the photo or video you selected first in the list. So it is a function that will be appreciated mainly by influencers. But the popular social network is also testing an interface in which videos and photos would be displayed over a much larger area of the screen. Similar to TikTok. And what's the latest Instagram test announced? NFT.
