Instagram will soon have the option to show only posts from Meta Verified people،
Taking a page from Elon Musk’s book, Meta quickly implemented the ability to pay to become a verified user. The company now plans to introduce another feature already available on X: verified-only feeds.
Instagram head Adam Mosseri said earlier this week that his company is currently testing the option to show only posts from people who pay for Meta Verified on someone’s timeline (via The Yard): We’re exploring this as a new control for people and a way for businesses and creators to be discovered..
Launched earlier this year, Meta Verified is available for $11.99 on the web and $14.99 in the app, a considerable amount considering there aren’t many benefits that subscribers get in return.
Perhaps the new feature allowing users to only see posts from those who are meta-verified will increase the service’s appeal. We’ll keep our eyes peeled for more information on this, so stay tuned if you’re interested in Instagram’s future development plans.
