While the upcoming changes aren't exactly shocking — the platform has been working on finding new ways to incorporate retail, video and more for years — the intentional shift away from photos may require users to change their ways.

Tosone said Instagram's move into entertainment is likely an effort to keep pace with competitors like TikTok and YouTube, a point Adam Mosseri alluded to in his video announcement.
