Instagram experiences a new feature that provides users with special comments on their comments. This test includes a button set next to the comments, providing a secret method for users to express negative feelings about a specific content. It is important to understand that this is not the “hate” button in the traditional sense. There is no general outcome of hate, and no person will be notified, not even a commentator, if someone uses this new option.

The success of this test is likely to depend on several factors. How effective is the system to define negative comments really? Will users understand how the button works and uses it appropriately? Perhaps most importantly, will this change actually lead to a more positive comment environment on Instagram? These are the questions that you will only answer the time and the comments used. If the test proves its success, it may become a standard advantage over the statute, which may affect how other social media companies deal with the suspension.

I, for one, is the best consumption of my social media with the least possible negative, so if this feature helps reduce the vision of these comments, it may make my total experience on the platform more enjoyable. I am ready to embrace this test if it ends with a permanent feature.
