 How to hide the number of 'likes' on Instagram posts?

Various studies have shown that likes on social media platforms increase the release of the dopamine hormone in our brain.

Dopamine hormone is associated with pleasure and makes us feel happy and satisfied. That is why we want to get as many likes as possible on the posts we make on social media platforms, which has become a part of our lives.

However, if we do not get many likes on social media, we feel bored and sad. Therefore, to get rid of such a situation, we can hide the likes on Instagram posts.

The process of hiding the number of likes on Instagram is very simple. For this, you just need to change a simple setting. You can keep this setting on all web browsers, Android and iOS.
