As reported by TechCrunch, the app would be experimenting with full-screen vertical home feeds. In this way, the videos are brought more front and center and the users would directly see the content.
Adam Mosseri, Head of Instagram, did a test on his Twitter account with a video announcing that some feeds were going to start including much taller photos and videos. At the end of the tweet, he asked users to give their opinion on it.

Right now, every time we share an image on Instagramthe home feed is occupied not only the image, but also for comments, subtitles, likes and other features at the top instead of below.
The spokeswoman for MetaSeine Kim, said in a statement that the home feed would be displayed once users start scrolling down, although they assure that ‘Stories’ will still be available at the top of the screen.
Last April, Mosseri warned that the platform would change its ranking algorithm in such a way that “original” content would be rewarded over forwarded content. In addition, Instagram has pushed a lot for the short video format and the choice to focus the app A video-focused feed might not be so far-fetched.
