Instagrama is an American photo and video sharing social networking service founded by Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger. In April 2012, Facebook Inc. acquired the service for approximately US$1 billion in cash and stock. The app allows users to upload media that can be edited with filters and organized by hashtags and geographical tagging. Posts can be shared publicly or with pre-approved followers. Users can browse other users' content by tags and locations and view trending content. Users can like photos and follow other users to add their content to a personal feed.
Instagram was originally distinguished by only allowing content to be framed in a square aspect ratio with 640 pixels to match the display width of the iPhone at the time. In 2015, these restrictions were eased with an increase to 1080 pixels. The service also added messaging features, the ability to include multiple images or videos in a single post, and a 'stories' feature—similar to its main opposition Snapchat—which allows users to post photos and videos to a sequential feed, with each post accessible by others for 24 hours each. As of January 2019, the Stories feature is used by 500 million users daily.

It's full of racism, sexism, homophobia and bullying etc. There can also be a lot of trolling and hateful comments towards people who are different from the norm. There are also instances of cyberbullying and harassment directed at certain targeted individuals. Overall the comments section can be a source of toxicity.
Instagram comments be like:
Black kid: posts normal video
Comment 1: Get a job lil nigga💀
Comment 2: imma do unspeakable things to u lil nigga
Comment 3: Get oiled up imma be there in 5 minutes
Comment 4: Thug it out lil nigga u gotta 9-5 and a familiy to feed
