Hello, tech enthusiasts! It’s your funny guy Nuked here, ready to dive into some exciting Instagram news. Buckle up!

Instagram is shaking things up by swapping out those classic square profile grids for snazzy rectangles! This change, as announced by Instagram’s head honcho Adam Mosseri in a recent Instagram Story, is rolling out as we speak. He mentioned that while many of you might miss your beloved squares—after all, they are part of Instagram’s legacy—most uploads these days come in a vertical format. So, it’s time to embrace the rectangle revolution!

Adam also shared his thoughts on cropping. He understands that it can be a bit of a bummer to chop off parts of your photos and videos just to fit them into those pesky squares. He acknowledged that while this change might feel like a hassle at first, it’s more of a transitional pain. In the long run, he believes users will appreciate seeing more of their content displayed just as they intended.

This isn’t the first time we’ve heard about this shift; back in August, Instagram hinted at a limited test of the new layout. And that’s not all—today, they also unveiled a new feature for your Reels feed, where you can check out videos that your friends have liked. Now you can keep up with what your pals enjoy while scrolling through your feed!

So there you have it! Instagram is evolving, and who knows what other surprises they have in store? Stay tuned for more updates and keep snapping those fabulous rectangle-shaped memories!
