Instagram user? Here`s how to change or reset your Explore feed

Facebook-owned photo sharing app Instagram has been one of the most popular social media platforms over the years, thanks to its addition of new features like Reels and others. It also gives an option for users to share creative content and follow favourite celebrities.
