Blocking Comments on Instagram: Why You Might Want to Do It
Sometimes, you just need a break from comments on your Instagram posts. Whether they’re spammy, negative, or just plain overwhelming, it’s okay to want to limit conversation. Blocking comments can give you control over your space and help keep interactions positive.
How to Block Commenting on Instagram
To block comments on Instagram isn't as hard as it might seem. You can turn off comments entirely for a post, or choose to block certain words or users. Here’s a quick guide on how to do it.
Turn Off Comments When Posting
When you’re about to share a new post on Instagram, look for the 'Advanced Settings' option just before you hit 'Share'. Here, you'll see the option 'Turn Off Commenting'. Check this box and voilà—no comments allowed on your post!
Block Comments on Existing Posts
To stop comments on an old photo or video, tap '...' on the top-right of your post. Then, tap 'Turn Off Commenting'. This will stop any new comments from being added to the post.
Blocking Specific Words or Users
If you don't want to block all comments, Instagram allows you to block specific words or users. Go to your profile, tap on the 'Settings' (gear icon), choose 'Privacy', and then 'Comments'. Here, you can filter comments by keywords or block specific users altogether.
