Instagram provides a range of pronoun options, which will populate in the window as you enter your chosen terms. Users can edit or remove their chosen pronouns at any time, while you can also choose whether your pronouns listing is shown to everyone, or just your followers in the app.
For the broader push to maximize inclusion, and ensure that all users are able to represent themselves as they choose on the platform, it’s a good addition for Instagram.
For many, the addition won’t make any difference to the way they use the app, but for those to whom it is relevant, it’s a hugely important update, and will help greatly in validating their identity and improving their interactions based on their Insta profile.
The update is now available in the latest version of the app.
