Instagram tests a reposts feature


Instagram is testing the ability for users to repost posts, the company confirmed to TechCrunch on Monday.

Of course, not everyone will be on board if Instagram decides to roll out the change officially, especially since it would add yet another content format to a platform already overcrowded with posts, Stories, Reels, Notes, DMs, ads, and more. In addition, some people currently use workarounds and third-party apps to repost content, so an official reshare feature would get rid of the need to find alternatives. It makes sense for Instagram to introduce the ability to repost, especially since the format has been adopted by other social networks like Threads and TikTok.
