Instagram admitted that it reduces the quality of older or less popular videos. This means better quality is saved for videos with more views. Adam Mosseri, who runs Instagram, said they prefer higher quality for popular creators. Videos watched less are downgraded, but if they become popular, the quality is boosted. Some creators worry this may affect their video’s reach. One person said adjusting video quality based on performance is wrong. They feel Instagram has become too focused on views and engagement. High-resolution videos with many visual elements use more storage space and may be downgraded. Instagram claimed to make content recommendations fair for all creators. Users were told to focus on creating engaging content rather than worrying about quality reduction. Instagram said they don’t change individual video quality by much, aiming to show the best content possible. The platform faced backlash for previous attempts to emphasize video content over photos.
