Instagram's move to hide likes is one that is seemingly steeped in social responsibility, but perhaps there's an ulterior motive here.

The feature appears to be available on Android and iOS devices, and if you’re a part of the test group, you won’t be able to see likes on any of your devices that are logged into the affected account. At the time of writing, only one of us in the office is a part of the test group, which shows that the Malaysian region is also a part of the trial.

In addition, we understand that like counts are important for many creators, and we are actively thinking through ways for creators to communicate value to their partners.Pushing the new update to select Instagram users in the global community means that we are one step closer to a world where likes for posts on your Instagram posts aren’t publicly displayed.

In a world where the value of content is measured by metrics like “likes” or “engagement”, I’d have to say that the idea behind Instagram’s move seems to be an encouraging one—at least from a social standpoint. According to a statement by Instagram, reported by“We want your friends to focus on the photos and videos you share, not how many likes they get.”above, the wording appears to suggest that Instagram will be coming up with an advertising solution in the future.
