Instagram says it's working to bring back the chronological feed sometime in early 2022

Ever miss the days of seeing your Instagram feed in chronological order? You might finally get your wish. Instagram's head Adam Mosseri claims the company is actively working on bringing the chronological feed option back into the app. Mosseri testified before the US Congress today, which focused on the app's impact on children. A topic that keeps resurfacing is how addictive it could be for users. One aspect that makes it that way is the algorithm, which surfaces what you want to see (or what it thinks you want to see).

Mosseri said that Instagram has been "actively working on" bringing a chronological option "for months," and it hopes to launch the feature sometime "in the first quarter of next year." If you used Instagram before 2016, you have seen your feed in chronological order. It was that year when the company switched to the algorithmic option.

YouTube plans to bring its video chapters to more devices. The company announced "newer smart TVs" and "gaming consoles" are getting the feature. Video chapters allow you to skip to parts of a clip you want to watch. It's already available on smartphones, tablets, Android TV, and Apple TV set-top boxes.

YouTube didn't specify what devices are getting the feature. But for consoles, you can assume the current generation Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo consoles with a dedicated YouTube app. YouTube hasn't updated its dedicated support pages yet to show which devices will get, but it might be because the feature is rolling out slowly.

instax mini 11 BTS 'Butter' edition is coming to Canada this month

Fujifilm has partnered with K-pop superstars BTS to redesign the instax mini 11 to come in the bright yellow colour of its chart-topping hit, Butter. The instant camera also gets the jewel graphics and heart motifs seen on the single. Fujifilm has also launched a matching instax mini BTS "Butter" instant film that features a yellow border decorated with the Butter heart emblem. The camera is priced at $129.99, while the film costs $14.99. Both are expected to be available on Fujifilm Canada's website later this month.

The instax mini 11 comes equipped with features like Automatic Exposure and Selfie Mode. The former allows the camera to detect the light level instantly when you press the shutter button. It'll then optimize the shutter speed and flash output based on your environment. The latter lets you check your reflection with the lens's front-end edge before taking your photo.
