There is one thing that almost all social media platforms have in common. They all give users the power to make something go viral. A challenge, a video, a post â you name it. Indeed, over the past year, many trends went viral on social media. The In my feelings challenge and What the fluff challenge are just two of many examples. Evidently, this is something that wonât stop any time soon. So, every year we witness how new trends are born. And today we are here to talk about one of the newest challenges of 2019 â The Baby Cheese Challenge. The Baby Cheese Challenge â Whatâs It About?So, what is this whole baby cheese challenge all about? Well, itâs pretty simple actually. The baby cheese challenge consists of a person throwing a slice of cheese to a babyâs face. Of course, the purpose behind this is to catch the babyâs reaction, and then upload it online. The trend first became popular on Twitter, but was then shared on Facebook and Instagram. Certainly, this helped to boost it up to the point of making it become a viral challenge. On a side note, the baby cheese challenge has become so popular, that even supermarkets have decided to put up signs like the one from the image below to ask parents not to throw cheese at their babies. Peopleâs ThoughtsNow, what do people actually think about this? Well, we know for sure that there are people who find challenges just to be stupid. As a matter of fact, they blame it on millennials. So, having to hear individuals complaining about social media trends is not uncommon. However, there are old people who see challenges as funny and have nothing against them. But, these same people are the ones finding this trend to be a bad one. Of course, there are certain challenges that can only be described as stupid. For example, a person eating cinnamon, or burning their skin with salt and ice and all of that kind of stuff. Indeed, people donât support this, but donât complain either. Mostly because they know that those who decide to do these challenges are aware of the consequences. But, with the baby cheese challenge, things are different. People argue that this trend is sort of abuse towards infants. And of course, this has generated a huge debate among the online community. Some users will argue that the challenge is harmless, while others will say that itâs unfair to do this to babies who cannot defend themselves or express disgust. VariationsThe baby cheese challenge has obviously annoyed quite a lot of people. But, as grandma would say, thereâs a solution for everything but death. So, what does this mean? Well, it means that even though some people donât support the idea of throwing a slice of cheese at a babyâs face, they still enjoy doing the challenge. However, they do apply a small variation. You see, instead of throwing a slice of cheese at a babyâs face, there are people who opt to throw the slice of cheese at their pets, or even their older friends. Final ThoughtsFrom a personal point of view, I think this trend should be seen as just that â a simple trend. It will eventually be forgotten and people will continue with their lives. Finally, the debate on whether or not this challenge is harmful to babies will also stop. If you disagree with people throwing slices of cheese at their kids, just ignore them. Donât do the challenge and wait for it to pass. Letâs just be thankful that this trend doesnât encourage children to eat cinnamon, or anything silly like that!

There’s one thing that most people will agree on. Tagged photos are not always perfect. As a matter of fact, the concept of being tagged in a photo has led multiple trolls to create memes regarding the topic. At present, teenagers take dozens of photos before choosing which one to upload. But, things change as soon as someone decides to tag you in a post where you don’t look so good. Unfortunately, when someone tags you on Instagram, the post appears on your profile. So, you are exposed to the eyes of your followers. Luckily, there’s something you can do. And that is to choose which tagged posts can go to your Instagram profile. Here’s how to do it. Instagram Tagged Posts AuthorizationSo, it’s all about authorization. While you can’t choose not to be tagged in Instagram posts, you can select which tagged photos go to your profile. All you need to do is to head to the settings menu and follow these steps. First of all, go to your profile on Instagram and tap the three lines on the upper right of the screen. Then, tap where it says settings and scroll down to the privacy and security section. Under there you will find a bunch of options. Tap where it says photos and videos of you. Finally, just unmark the add automatically option and that’s it. From now on, you don’t have to worry about having tagged posts you don’t like on your profile. Additional FeatureAlso, there is an additional feature under the same “Authorization menu window” that gives you the option to hide posts you have already been tagged in. With it, you can select previous tagged photos or videos and hide them from your timeline. All you need to do is to tap where it says “Hide photos and Videos” and select whichever post you want to hide. That’s it, you are now in control of the content that appears on your profile. The post How To Authorize Tagged Photos On Instagram appeared first on Becoming Instafamous. from Becoming Instafamous https://becoming.instafamous.pro/instagram-tagged-posts-authorization/ from https://instafamouspro1.tumblr.com/post/183747541342 There was a time when people had to log in to their social media accounts from their computers in order to be able to upload a photo or share a thought. For example, back in 2004 when Facebook was released, the only way one could access it was through a computer. In fact, most social media platforms before Facebook required users to do the same thing in order to post something. Then, in 2010, when Instagram was born, things changed. First of all, Instagram entered the market of social media as an app. Therefore, it was no longer necessary to use our computers to upload a photo or share a thought. As a matter of fact, we could now do everything from our phones. Still, over time Instagram would become one of the most popular apps in the world. So, the leading team decided to implement a web version of the platform as well. At present, there are quite a few things we can do on Instagram from our computer. For example, we can check our friends’ stories, follow people, comment on photos and more. Unfortunately, there is no a direct way to upload a photo using a computer. Still, that doesn’t mean it’s impossible. So, keep reading because we are about to show you how to upload a photo to Instagram from your computer. What you need to doFirst of all, you will want to open up your browser and access Instagram. Second of all, you will need to right-click the page and select where it says Inspect. Doing so will open a sort of sidebar in which there will be lots of codes and links most people don’t understand. But, don’t worry, no one is hacking your computer. Then, at the very top of the sidebar you will find two icons. Select the one of a tablet to change the site to mobile view. Finally, just click the plus icon at the bottom and you will be able to upload a photo without having to use your phone. NoteThere is a small chance that you won’t be able to access the bottom bar from where you can upload photos. However, there’s nothing to worry about. In fact, all you need to do is simply refresh the site and it will appear. The post How to post on Instagram from your computer appeared first on Becoming Instafamous. from Becoming Instafamous https://becoming.instafamous.pro/instagram-posts-from-computer/ from https://instafamouspro1.tumblr.com/post/183726157682 Instagram is currently the second largest social media platform in the world. As a matter of fact, there are already a billion monthly active users enjoying the photo-sharing app every day. Some of these users are very accustomed to checking Instagram quite often. Therefore, getting them to simply forget about the app and clear all of their content is nearly impossible. Indeed, asking a person to clear all of their memories from Instagram is very hard. But, what if these people were offered something in return. Certainly, a nice compensation could seal the deal. Perhaps travelling for one year, for free? It sounds good, doesn’t it? All you would’ve needed to do is clear every single post from your Instagram account. Before We StartUnfortunately, the application period for this contest has already expired. Therefore, the following information is merely a resume of what users had to do in order to win the opportunity of travelling for free for a full year. Let’s hope the airline launches this contest once again next year. JetBlue Contest – TermsSo, what did one have to do to win a year of free flights? Well, there were two very simple steps to follow. First of all, users needed to clear their posts from Instagram. Now, notice that we are using the term clear. This means that there was no need to delete the posts, but to just archive them. Finally, the applicant would have also needed to create a post promoting the airline, and upload it to the photo-sharing platform using a hashtag (#ALLYOUCANJETSWEEPSTAKES ). And that’s pretty much it. These two steps would have made you eligible for winning the prize. The CatchUnfortunately, there was a catch. The three lucky winners of the contest would indeed be able to travel without having to pay for tickets. However, the downside is that they would still be liable for individual taxes and fees on each flight. In other words, the flights are not entirely free per se, but rather very cheap.It’s still a pretty good deal considering applicants only needed to clear their posts from their Instagram accounts. NoteJetBlue never specified the reason why they asked people to clear their Instagram posts. As a matter of fact, the company made it clear that users could put their photos back on their profiles after the contest was over. So, let’s just assume this was all about publicity. Also, let’s hope they decide to launch the same contest next year! The post Instagram Or Travelling For Free – Make Your Choice appeared first on Becoming Instafamous. from Becoming Instafamous https://becoming.instafamous.pro/instagram-or-travelling/ from https://instafamouspro1.tumblr.com/post/183674832362 Can you buy real Instagram followers? That is the question many people all over the world ask. At present, waiting to grow organically on Instagram is not always the best option. Therefore, some people opt to buy their way into fame online. But does it really work? Is it possible to buy real Instagram followers online and become famous within a matter of days? Well, during the past few days Iâve been trying to figure this out. Of course, in order to do so, I bought followers from online platforms. Unfortunately, it all ended up being a waste of money. (You can read more about that clicking here). Nevertheless, I am willing to try and find a legit site from where I can buy real followers one more time. So, letâs get started and see what happens. Buy InstaThis time I will be buying followers from a site called buyinsta.online. Just like the other sites that I have tried, âBuy Instaâ does also claim to deliver real Instagram followers. The process is simple â you select a package, enter your Instagram username, and select your preferred payment method. Fortunately, the site accepts PayPal. So, you donât have to worry about entering your credit/debit card information if you donât want to. Finally, you just have to wait a few minutes and see how your followers grow. Or at least, thatâs what the site says. I am about to find out by trying it myself. Of course, as always, I will start with the smallest package ($2.00 â 100 followers) ResultsI have now paid for my order and received what I asked for. However, I still need to review some aspects of my purchase. So letâs go over that and see whether or not this website is worth the time and money. Time of DeliverySurprisingly, this website ended up being the fastest of all. As a matter of fact, it only took them 3 minutes and 24 seconds to deliver the agreed number of followers. Yet, I feel that the real time of delivery wouldâve been different if I had stopped the timer the minute I stopped getting new followers. You see, to make this as fair as possible, I stopped counting after I reached the 100 new followers (which was the original package I bought) . However, the follower count continued to grow for a few seconds after that. Either way, âBuyinstaâ has proven to be the site with the fastest delivery of all. FollowersFor some reason, the time it took this website to complete my order made me feel like once again, I was going to get nothing but bots. Unfortunately, I was right. Soon after getting all my new followers, I decided to check out some of their profiles. Incredibly, I found many followers with an actual profile pic. At first, I got excited. Could this be the website that I had been looking for? Did I actually buy REAL followers? Well, the sad truth is that I got excited about nothing. As I began to scroll down, I realised that all of my new followers were bots. For the second time, I couldnât find one single real profile that I could follow back and send a message to. And those profiles with a picture that got me excited? Well, they were fake too. So here I am, disappointed at this website. Definitely not in the mood to do the interaction test. Mostly because I already know that not one of my new followers is going to react to anything I post. Still, Iâve decided that Iâm gonna give it a try. InteractionIndeed, just as I thought, none of my new followers reacted to the last post I decided to upload. This time I posted a picture of a dish called tacu tacu. Instead, I got 4 likes from people who donât follow me on Instagram but who have actual real accounts. Once again, these likes were obtained organically thanks to the right use of hashtags. So, long story short, you canât really expect to get interaction from the followers you buy if they are not real in the first place. Makes sense, right? Final ThoughtsAfter testing three different websites, I have come to the conclusion that buying followers online wonât always reach your expectations. I am sure there are platforms out there that do actually get you real followers, such as Instafamous.Pro. But for now, I cannot give a completely positive opinion about the ones that I have tested. Moreover, the fact that these sites claim to deliver âReal Followersâ is outrageous. Mostly because they trick you into giving them money for what ends up being a bunch of bots. Unlike real active accounts, bots are nothing but a number in your Instagram profile that will never engage with your posts. In other words, you canât expect to get comments nor likes. Now, if you are really looking to grow on Instagram, there are many ways in which you can do it organically. As a matter of fact, if I have learned something testing the websites I used for this experiment, is that hashtags help you to get discovered. So, start by using that and then continue to look for new ways to grow on Instagram organically. The results may be better than you think. The post I Bought âREALâ Instagram Followers And This Is What Happened â Part 3 appeared first on Becoming Instafamous. from Becoming Instafamous https://becoming.instafamous.pro/buy-real-instagram-followers/ from https://instafamouspro1.tumblr.com/post/183619571697 Instagram is one of those platforms where anyone can grow and succeed. Last time, I did an experiment to see how effective it was to buy followers online. Unfortunately, the results were not what I expected. As a matter of fact, I ended up getting a pig in a poke. (You can read the article by clicking here) However, there are tons of sites online from where one can buy Instagram followers. So, I will try to do the experiment a second time and see what happens. InstashopThis time I will be testing a different website called Instashop.today. Similar to the one I tried the first time, Instashop also claims to deliver âREALâ Instagram followers. The website is secure and they accept pretty much any type of payment. As a matter of fact, not only can you pay with a credit or debit card, but also with Paypal and even Crypto Wallet. So for this review, I will buy their smallest package ($1.99 â 250 followers) and see what happens. ResultsI have now bought the 250 followers that this website promises to deliver. But, I am yet to review the results and see whether or not I got âreal followersâ for the price I paid. So, letâs examine a few aspects of their service and determine how effective this website really is. Time of DeliveryFirst of all, letâs talk about the time it took for âInstashopâ to deliver the agreed number of followers. So, unlike the first website I reviewed, Instashop didnât give me an estimate of how long I would have to wait before getting my order. Therefore, I decided to buy blindly and wait for as long as I had to. However, as soon as I paid for the service, I was informed that it could take up to 48 hours before processing the payment and delivering my order. Initially, I thought, okay this might be good. Maybe if they are going to take this much time, then I will probably get actual real followers. Either way, I decided to start my stopwatch and proceeded to refresh my Instagram profile every 30 seconds. I was convinced nothing was going to happen for at least a few hours. But, I was wrong. As a matter of fact, the minute I refreshed my profile, my number of followers started to grow. Evidently, this meant that I would get my order within a few minutes. So, I just sat for a while and waited patiently. Eventually, I received the number of followers I was promised and stopped the stopwatch. The exact time of delivery ended up being 13 min and 54 seconds. This was almost double the time it took for me to receive my followers from the first website I reviewed. But to be fair, this time I was paying for almost double the followers that I bought the first time. So, I guess thereâs nothing to complain about here. FollowersNow letâs talk about the most important aspect of all â followers. Did I get real followers as this website promised? Well, much like the site I reviewed before this one, the answer is no. I didnât get real followers from Instashop either. However, I did receive more bots than I asked for. You see, at this point itâs pretty easy to know when you are getting bots rather than real Instagram followers. And as I expected, thatâs basically what I got â a bunch of bots. But then again, I got an increased number of those bots than I expected. Initially, the first website I reviewed landed me 121 fake followers. But, over the days that number decreased to 103. So, since I bought 250 ârealâ followers from this new site, (Instashop), I expected to only have 353 followers in the end. Instead, that number went up to 370. Unfortunately, this will not benefit me in any way. After all, I just received a bunch of bots from another website claiming to deliver real Instagram followers. Now, just as I did with Famoid, I also tried to find at least one authentic account that I could follow back and send a message. The overall idea was to ask that person how he or she decided to follow me. But, this time, I didnât have any luck. In fact, the more I scrolled down, the more I realised that I had just been played. None of the accounts following me were actually real people. So, with nothing more to do, I decided to move to the next step of this experiment and test the interaction. Hereâs what happened. InteractionSo, in order to test whether or not my new âreal followersâ would interact with my content, I needed to post something new. And so I did â I opened up Instagram on my phone and selected one of the food pics that I have stored in my gallery. This time, I chose to post a Peruvian traditional dish âCausa Rellena.â Finally, I added a filter and wrote some tags. Now, it was just a matter of waiting. Sadly, an hour went by, but none of my new followers seemed to be interested. Instead, I got a couple of likes from people who found my post through the hashtags. Final ThoughtsThere was nothing indicating to me that the results from Instashop would be different from any other website that sells followers. Still, I decided to try their service and came to the conclusion that itâs not worth it. Once again, I received bots that will not do anything other than just make my profile look a bit more âpopular.â Also, as I waited for an hour to see if someone interacted with my new post, my follower count decreased from 370 to 355. In a nutshell, the website kind of does what it promises to do, but not in its totality. On one hand, they do give you the number of followers you pay for. But on the other hand, those followers are not actually real. So, if you were to ask me: Should I buy followers from this website? My answer would once again be a simple NO. The post I Bought âREALâ Instagram Followers And This Is What Happened â Part 2 appeared first on Becoming Instafamous. from Becoming Instafamous https://becoming.instafamous.pro/real-instagram-followers-2/ from https://instafamouspro1.tumblr.com/post/183584696232 At present, there are millions of influencers all over the world. Evidently, they are extremely popular thanks to their large number of followers on social media. But, how is it that they have so many fans on Instagram and similar platforms? Is it that easy to start building a presence on these sites? Well, it depends. Some people are lucky enough to grow organically in just a short period of time. Unfortunately, this is not the case for all of us. In fact, a regular person has to put in some time and work before starting to gain their first few followers. And not everybody is willing to wait for too long. So, is there a way to speed up the process? What about buying followers online? Well, it is an option. Still, there’s a lot you should consider first. For example, buying followers online presents some risks. Most sites will just sell you bots (click here to learn more about that). Nevertheless, I am willing to find out by myself how effective using this method actually is in order to grow on social media. Of course, in this particular case, we are going to focus solely on Instagram. But, wait a second, I’m not just going to buy any kind of followers, I’m going to buy “REAL” Instagram followers. At least, this is what some of the sites I will use claim to sell. So, let me explain to you a little bit about how this experiment will go. Buying Real Instagram Followers – What You Need To KnowFirst of all, you need to know how this is going to work. I will be testing three different websites that claim to sell real Instagram followers. To do so, I have created a new Instagram account that you can check out by clicking here. This account will have food-related posts and nothing but a few hashtags and brief descriptions. This way, I will see whether or not the followers I buy interact with my posts. Finally, this experiment will be divided into three parts. In each one, I will evaluate a number of different factors. For example, the time it took for each site to deliver the followers, the authenticity of the accounts, and so on. So, now that you know what this is all about, let’s get started. FamoidThe first website that I will try is called Famoid. It claims to deliver real and active followers, providing instant delivery. The server connection is secure and you can pay with either a debit/credit card or PayPal. In, this particular case I will buy the smallest package ($2.95 – 100 followers) and see what happens. ResultsI have now bought the hundred followers package and I got results. So, does this site gives what it promises? Well, technically they do. However, there are a few things to consider. Here’s how effective it was to buy followers from Famoid.com Time of DeliveryThe site states that it takes up to 5 minutes to receive the number of followers you bought. Of course, results may vary from time to time, which is exactly what happened in this case. As a matter of fact, I had to wait exactly seven minutes to receive the one hundred followers that I bought. Finally, one thing to note is that you don’t get all of the followers at once. Instead, they start to appear little by little as the minutes pass. FollowersAfter waiting for 7 minutes, I got what I was promised. In fact, Famoid ended up giving me more than one hundred followers. To be more accurate, I got 121 followers for the inexpensive price of $2.95. However, for some reason, I lost 2 of those followers in the next half hour. Still, I got more than what I asked for. That’s good, right? Well, in a general scenario it would have been something good. Unfortunately, I have to say that this was not the case. Let me explain why. First of all, I did receive the followers that I was promised. So, in a way, Famoid did its job. But, here’s the thing – after seeing how my number of followers went from 0 to over 100, I decided to check a few of the profiles of the people following me. And this is what I found. As you can see in the above image, most of my followers don’t have a profile picture. Therefore, I decided to investigate a bit more and went on to some of their profiles. I then discovered that most of the people following me don’t have any posts nor profile pics. Some have private accounts, and just a very small number of them have a few posts with tags and descriptions. At this point, I was sure I paid for bots. But, I decided to give Famoid one more chance and followed one of my new followers back. The reason? Well, I wanted to send a message to a fellow user and see if I got a reply. Now, the person I decided to follow back was one of the very few whose profile looked authentic. I mean, she had quite a lot of posts, comments, tags, likes, and more. So, I went on to DM her and explained that I was doing an Instagram experiment. But, despite her being active liking posts from other people, I never got a reply. InteractionIt has been an hour since I bought the package from Famoid. Unfortunately, there have not been any interactions yet. The one post my new account has only got two likes and one follower before I bought the service Famoid was offering. But to be fair, I only bought followers. So, technically I am not supposed to receive likes or comments. However, from the number of people that follow me now, at least one should have noticed my post, right? Sadly, it doesn’t seem to be the case. But, I’m not here to give up that easily. So, what I am going to do is upload a new photo and wait another hour to see if I get any likes or comments. I have now waited for one extra hour since I posted the last photo. But guess what? Once again, no one reacted to my post. At least, no one from my list of new followers. This time, I posted a photo of a traditional Mexican dish, tacos. But, that’s not all. As a matter of fact, not only did I post the photo, but I also tagged one of my new followers. My hopes were to at least make this person wonder as to why I tagged her in the first place. Unfortunately, I didn’t catch her attention. Instead, the hashtags I used for this post landed me a like from a taco related Instagram account that doesn’t follow me, and a few other accounts that don’t follow me either. Final Thoughts – Real or Not?After a few hours, I came to the realisation that this is just another case of a site that gives you bots as followers. On one hand, I received the number of followers that I was expecting. On the other hand, I didn’t benefit from it at all. No comments nor likes from my new followers. Finally, almost 95% of them don’t have any content on their profiles. The accounts that do have some sort of content have barely any interaction. To put it briefly, if someone were to ask me whether or not this site is worth it, I would respond with a simple NO. Keep an eye out for the next part of this experiment! The post I Bought “REAL” Instagram Followers And This Is What Happened – Part 1 appeared first on Becoming Instafamous. from Becoming Instafamous https://becoming.instafamous.pro/buying-real-instagram-followers/ from https://instafamouspro1.tumblr.com/post/183541257167 Instagram is full of people with millions and millions of followers. Of course, the more followers one has, the more likes one gets. In fact, for some years now reality star Kylie Jenner has held the record for having the most liked photo ever on Instagram. This popular photo is of Kylieâs new born child Stormi holding her finger. At present, Kylieâs photo has over 18 million likes. Unfortunately, it is no longer considered the most popular photo on the internet. Why is this? Well, basically â an egg beat it. Believe it or not, the photo of an egg posted a few weeks ago has now almost tripled the number of likes that Kylieâs photo has. The account that posted this particular photo is world_record_egg. At the moment the post has over 53 million likes and the number of followers is over 9.7 million. Of course, it is very likely that these figures will increase in the next few months. But what else do we know about this topic? Well, just a few more details. For example, did you know that it only took a week for the egg post to beat Kylie Jennerâs photo? One would think that after reaching the goal of the post with more likes, it would all stop. However, people kept on liking the egg for days after. In fact, the likes are still rolling in to this day. The Man Behind The ScenesSo, thereâs one question we all want to be answered. Who is the person behind this trend? Well, that would be Ishan Goel. Ishan Goel is a 19 year old Indian boy living in the state of Massachusetts. He is a marketing guru, and the person behind making an egg the most famous thing on the internet. Still, he remains humble about the topic and says he was only the driving force. In fact, Goel claims that all the credit should go to the chicken that laid the egg. âI wonât go into too many specifics about the secret sauce, but I can say that I worked to garner attention for the page on Reddit, reached out to media really early on, and told all of the celebrities and influencers in my network to help push itâ he explained in an interview. Egg-Fluencer?Now, letâs talk about the future of this account. First of all, it is important to understand that the world record egg has become one of the most rapid growing accounts on Instagram. Evidently, this is something that will call the attention of hundreds of brands. In other words, we could see this account becoming some sort of place for businesses to advertise. In fact, according to executive director at Pulse Advertising & Talent Management Paulina Paulsen, world egg record could be making quite a lot of money by simply posting content. That is of course, if a brand decides to sponsor it. âWith 5.8m followers and rising, this account suddenly has a huge audience and could instantly begin commanding five-figure sums per post,â she explains. World Record Egg â GUINNESS WORLD RECORDOf course, this has been a trend all over the world. So, one would need to be living under a rock not to have heard about it. The news about the egg post travelled across all seven continents, catching the attention of brands, influencers, celebrities, and of course, the Guinness World Book of Records. But, does this mean that the egg won a place in the renowned book? Well, no. Unfortunately, the egg has not made it into the Guinness World Book of Records. However, it has gained a mention on their official website that you can read clicking here. Final ThoughtsTo be honest, we are just as âeggcitedâ as everyone else to see whatâs going to happen next. And yes, we are confident that something else is coming. As a matter of fact, world record egg has posted a new picture, where we can see the same egg with a small crack. So, perhaps weâll be seeing a baby chicken coming out of that egg to break a new record. There is no way to know but to simply follow the account and wait it out! The post How An Egg Beat Kylie Jenner On Instagram appeared first on Becoming Instafamous. from Becoming Instafamous https://becoming.instafamous.pro/world-record-egg/ from https://instafamouspro1.tumblr.com/post/183485386792 Instagram is one of those social media platforms where pretty much everyone can follow anyone. But, is this really that bad? Well, let’s put this in perspective – allowing people we don’t know to follow us gives them access to see everything we post. Evidently, this is something that some users don’t like. Therefore, they opt to set their profiles to private. But, what happens when you have followers that managed to follow you before setting your account to private mode? What can one do? Well, there’s always a solution, and in this case, it’s to simply block the follower(s). So, here’s how you can block anyone you want in a few simple steps. How To Block an Instagram FollowerFirst of all, open up Instagram on your phone and tap the profile icon on the bottom right. Then, you will need to enter your list of followers. To do so, simply tap where it says followers on the upper part of your screen. From there you can select the person or people you want to block. However, keep in mind that if you want to block more than one user, you will need to repeat the process. Unfortunately, we can’t block several people at the same time. So, here’s what to do next. Once you decide who you want to block, simply enter their profile and tap the three dots on the top right of the screen. Finally, tap where it says block and that’s all. NoteThis method will help you get rid of those people you don’t want to follow you. However, if you decide to revert things in the future, there’s an option for it. As a matter of fact, you just have to repeat the steps from this article and you will be able to unblock any user if you choose to do so. Last of all, blocking an user will not notify them about the action taken. In other words, you can choose who can and can’t follow you without offending anyone. The post How To Block A Follower On Instagram appeared first on Becoming Instafamous. from Becoming Instafamous https://becoming.instafamous.pro/block-an-instagram-follower/ from https://instafamouspro1.tumblr.com/post/183429488442 At present, Instagram is the most complete platform in the whole world. They work hard to release new features for users to enjoy. And now we could soon see an Instagram donation function on stories. So, hereâs the thing. Recently, Instagram decided to announce their desire to launch a donation sticker for stories. Currently, this function is still in the development stage. Therefore, it could be a while before we see it in action. The overall idea of this sticker is to support non-profit organizations with accounts on Instagram. However, we still donât know whether the donation sticker will only allow users to send money, or clothes etc. Either way, weâll have an option to help people in need. Non-Profit OrganizationsThere are a ton of non-profit organizations on Instagram. Some aim to help people, while others strive to help animals. Either way, we are confident that once the donation sticker is released, things are going to change for the better. In other words, more people will receive help and have better lives. So, if you feel like you could provide a grain of sand to help children, animals, and people in general, here are some non-profit Instagram accounts you should follow. Doctors Without BordersDoctors Without Borders is an international humanitarian medical NGO of French origin. Itâs best known for its projects in conflict zones, and in countries affected by endemic diseases. They provide assistance to people in crisis in over 60 countries, and spread awareness of the inhumanities they have to face every single day. Charity WaterCharity Water is a non-profit organization that provides drinking water to people in developing countries. So far, they have helped fund 24,537 projects in 24 countries. Thankfully, their dedication has benefited over 8.2 million people worldwide. BarcsBarcs is another non profit organization, dedicated to saving stray animals. They are based in Baltimore city and help save the lives of 11,000 animals each year. Barcs is not very well known internationally. Nevertheless, they continue to work day after day to provide the best care for these animals who have no one to take care of them. They offer different services through their website that are then used to cover the expenses of saving stray animals. Final ThoughtsEven though thereâs not too much information regarding this topic, the idea of a donation sticker actually sounds pretty good. None of us will be forced to donate any money. So, technically there shouldnât be a reason for users to be mad about the upcoming feature. As a matter of fact, this new function could help millions of people in need. And hopefully animals as well. For now, weâll just have to wait until this becomes a reality â and choose whether or not we want to help.
