Mobile Apps
For instance, BestBuddies is an app that can enact as such a type of tool which can aid in helping users figure out exactly who is among their top ‘likers’ and what exact percentage of users fall into the criteria or category of the posts they have liked or commented on.

Instagram also used to have an added feature where an individual could view whose posts their followers’ were liking and leaving comments on. This feature enabled users to view a list of the interactions and activities of their followers’. On the other hand, recently, Instagram made the decision and implemented the decision to remove this additional feature.
As it allowed other users to interfere in the privacy of their followers. Some users have also been known to be hesitant in liking or leaving comments on the posts of others as they were hesitant of others interfering in their interactions and activities.

Now, users have more freedom on whose photos and videos they like or leave comments on. This had also been enacted as an added benefit as for some accounts, their interaction activity had immensely increased in comparison to before when the feature was still present.
