Instagram might soon hide the Like count from your posts

19 April 2019
Because the company wants your followers to focus on what you share, and not how many likes your posts get.

        afterall, you don't need other people's approval to be who you really are.

          Imagine if youtube hides how many videos are playing, maybe I won't see a news site that preaches a Korean music video breaking records

                      Well. I like the idea of liking on posts. It will be boring to just scrolling tru lol

                        "Influencers" - fancy term for narcissists who live off getting likes and comments on their videos and posts, as well as think they're entitled to free things and services for their supposed popularity when they in reality they aren't.

                          It shouldn't be invisible/removed, as that can be used as a form of propaganda.
                          They should simply be hiding behind a button. So that its a small nuisance, that people must click and see the Likes count.

                          Otherwise, its like YouTube videos where they remove comments or completely block it, then go as far as hide the Like/Dislike bar. Or like when Netflix removed the rating system, which by the way was working tremendously well as a Social Grading system... however was killed by the big corporations/movie industry as transparency isn't a good business model for them but exaggerated bias marketing is.
