Social media has now become a major part of our day to day routine and activities. So much so that we subconsciously open these apps and start scrolling through the feed in between work too. So when social media apps go through a major update or change, we feel a slight discomfort. But last night, users felt more than just that. Basically, the internet lost their sh*t when Instagram accidentally changed to horizontal scrolling. Instead of scrolling vertically, the users had to tap to get to the next picture horizontally, just how we scroll through stories. The Instagram update lasted roughly for 10 minutes but was enough to spread the rage like wildfire. It was a one-sided reaction with people disliking the update, followed by lots of memes, of course!

What kind of "bug" comes with instructions🤔 Just admit that you made a terrible update and reverted it quickly after backlash from users😂 #InstagramUpdate pic.twitter.com/SsA1PMF0xw

These Instagram updates are weird. I think Instagram wants us to leave. Like when a guy goes “you’re just to good for me.” We should listen.

Instagram soon realised the issue and changed it back to the way it was quickly. They even tweeted about the same stating it as a bug which has been taken care of now. If that’s the reality then we’re glad the glitch has been sorted. But we can’t help but wonder, along with many others, if this could be a potential update coming in 2019? If so, we’d say Instagram already has the feedback for this new update and knows what to do!
Due to a bug, some users saw a change to the way their feed appears today. We quickly fixed the issue and feed is back to normal. We apologize for any confusion.
