Instagram allows publicly visible comments for stories but with limitations
By MYBRANDBOOK
Instagram has announced a new feature, "Comments in Stories," a few days ago during the launch of Creator Lab in India. Previously, Instagram did not offer any way to publicly comment on stories of others but the new feature allows users to comment on someone’s stories, with these comments visible to other users.
“You can now leave comments on friends’ Stories to show them some love”, read the post.
There are also two limitations to the feature that the Meta-owned social media platform has introduced.
One of the limitations is that the comments are visible to only those who follow the user posting the stories. Additionally, only the people that the user follows back can leave comments on their stories.
These restrictions have been included in an effort to prevent trolling.
Comments on stories will be viewable for 24 hours following the story's posting. If the story is saved as a highlight on the profile, the comments will remain. Instagram allows users to disable comments on a per-story basis.
Instagram spokesperson Emily Norfolk said that users will have the option to turn comments on or off for any Story they share.
Instagram has recently rolled out a new feature that enables users to add text to their photos directly within the post editor, eliminating the need for an external app for photo editing. Instagram has also launched new text fonts, effects, and animations for Reels and Stories.
