How often should you post on Instagram? I pit the Head of Instagram, Adam Mosseri, against the actual data. The Buffer team has done a masterful job of pulling all the data together into one place. There are also Edits app updates to talk about, plus AI news - turns out Meta's AI is doing some really bad things, and Chat-GPT has been updated but the old model is still available.

The Head of Instagram gives the latest on the reposts feature - how it works and where reposts appear. Additionally he explains how location sharing on Instagram works, and gives some updates on the Edits app. After the break we talk about how Instagram removes bots and fake followers, plus a feature suggestion for carousels.
