If you experienced the internet before 2010, you may remember we were in control of our feeds in social networks: You explicitly followed your friends and you saw their posts in chronological order alongside other profiles you followed, until you had caught up with the latest posts.

Today, if you create a fresh Instagram account, it’s very likely that you’ll instantly see posts and recommendations from profiles that you don’t follow and haven’t heard of, generally the popular ones, with a large number of followers, verified accounts or from public personalities.
