Looks like we're never getting a "Following Only" view on Instagram. They've tried it, tested it and the result is people spend less and less time on Instagram under that model. So while For You sometimes gets annoying because content you care about gets lost, it's not going anywhere

This makes sense too, if you’re following is majority friends not influencers I’d imagine your feed would have an end pretty quick. Average people don’t post enough to have an updated feed all the time considering how many times people pick up and scroll daily on Instagram.
I do remember a time where that basically was all social media, you only saw stuff from the people you followed. It definitely was not a ton on there, and I would not spend near as much time mindlessly scrolling. But on the other end I barely see things from followers anymore.
Yea I get why they are doing this though and I am not that disappointed by it. For me I feel like whoever needs to see what I have posted will and I don't really worrry about the rest. While it would be a nice feature at the end of the day they are going to do whatever makes them the most money.
