A few years ago, Instagram integrated ads. And these ads are showing in our feeds to try to sell us something :) And these Instagram ad posts reduce enjoyment of real Instagram posts. It would be nice to have an ad blocking feature.

I don't think there is an option for this directly in Instagram API. But I guess it can be done in some way: Only the posts of followers can be shown in feed and other posts which are just advertisements can be filtered and discarded.

I do not know if this is against the terms of use of the API. Although it may not be a default feature, it may be a hidden feature :)
