Improve the direct on the app. This is the goal of the novelty of Instagramactually long overdue: the introduction of the moderation in live shows. In fact, anyone who starts a live broadcast will be able to add moderators. These are live “controllers” who will be able, for example, to read and discard messages in chat and possibly delete them as well as kill and block harassing users, so as not to let them participate in the conversation in the chat accompanying the transmission.
The new feature was announced by Instagram through the official Twitter profile without a specific release date. A signal that, progressively, moderators will be introduced in all markets. To add a user as a moderator you will therefore have to start the live broadcast and click the three-dot menu on the comment bar. Once the user to whom to entrust the moderation has been chosen, he will receive a notification on the assignment and among his powers he will have that of report comments, remove users from live or prevent them from posting comments. To make his job easier, the social network will also allow you to set automatic filters for keywords, in order to prevent hate speech and harassment from the origin.
A novelty therefore expected, given that already on Facebook (but more specifically for the management of the Pages) as well as on Twitch (for the channel and therefore also for the live broadcasts), YouTube, Twitter for the audio spaces and even the now forgotten Clubhouse , there is the possibility of indicating a similar figure even if with partly different prerogatives and logics. If on Clubhouse the moderator allows and removes the floor, in addition to managing the stage, elsewhere he is in fact more concerned with check the live chat (as for Instagram) and everything that goes around it.
In short, a way through which the app will try to help creators to focus only on their content and on what they are broadcasting, without having to waste time and clarity to remove toxic, inappropriate, violent or harassing comments.
