Instagram wants to curb your Instagram Addiction

The feature will notify you when you’ve reached the end of your feed with a small green checkmark. Whether it does actually help our addiction to the platform remains to be seen, but hopefully, it’s a step in the right direction for all of us out there who feel like they get sucked into a black hole every time they open Instagram.
