Enhanced Privacy Controls on Instagram: Control Who Sees Your DMs and Comments, Opt to Exclude Everyone Except Close Friends.

Instagram has expanded its feature of limiting content to make users feel more secure by allowing them to hide DMs and comments from accounts that may try to harass them on a broader scale. Previously, users had to specify which accounts to limit, such as accounts that were recently followed or accounts that they didn’t follow back.

In this update, Instagram has added the option to hide comments and DMs from everyone except those in the Close Friends green circle. When enabling this new feature, users will only see DMs, tags, and mentions from those in their Close Friends list. All other accounts that they follow will not be aware that their account has been restricted. Initially, Instagram will set the limitation period to 4 weeks, but it can be extended further.

TLDR: Instagram now allows users to hide DMs and comments from accounts that may harass them, restricting access to only those in the Close Friends list. The limitation period is initially set to 4 weeks, but it can be extended.
