As I’m sure many of you already know firsthand, to be successful in this and other social networkswe must take care of our publications. These must be original and interesting to attract the attention of new followers. Then, once we have obtained them, we face the difficulty of maintaining them.
But we can also find ourselves facing a problem that is precisely what we are going to solve in these lines. We are referring to the possibility that certain people to whom we do not want to show our photos and videos start following us. However, we are faced with the problem that blocking them in the Instagram social network It is not recommended for whatever reason.
Those followers can realize that we have blocked them on the social platform, which would not leave us in a good place. That is precisely why Instagram itself presents us with an integrated function that will surely be helpful to many of you. We are referring to the possibility of hide our posts in the form of photos and videos, to a selection of followers of our account that we are going to specify.
In addition, we can achieve this without having to install third-party software or anything additional to the social network application. Instagram gives us this possibility and thus hide our posts from certain followers without them realizing it. Below we will show you how to activate and configure this functionality.

For example, we can customize this from the web version of Meta’s social platform. So, we just have to access it right now through this link. In the lower left corner of the main interface we find a button that is represented by three horizontal lines and that says More.
We click on it to access the configuration window of the social platform. Thus, in the section called How you use Instagram, we find precisely the function that interests us in these lines. Now we just have to click on Hide Stories and Live Videos. And we must take into consideration that the contacts that we are going to block here will not see our direct messages either.
In the right panel, an entry will appear from which we have the possibility of selecting those followers of our account that we do not want to see our publications. In addition, we have the possibility of activating or deactivating this block that we mentioned at any time from the same function that we have accessed now.
In this way, all those we have marked will see our account, but the comments will not appear on their wall. new publications in the form of videos and photos that we publish on Instagram. In addition, they will not be notified of our live broadcasts on the social platform or be able to follow them.
