Instagram makes its status update feature more interactive

Instagram has created Prompts, Likes and Mentions for Notes.

Instagram launched Notes in December 2022 as a way for people to share statuses (not so dissimilar to Facebook) on the platform. Instagram first experimented with Note Prompts earlier this year, and the feature allows users to share questions such as "What should I eat?" It feels very Facebook circa 2012, as does another new feature, Mentions, in which users can tag a friend directly in their Notes.
