Quoting: Anonymous Coward 68908007 Instagram removing 'likes' to 'depressurize' youth, some aren't buying itRight now we're testing making like counts private, so you'll be able to see how many people liked a given photo of yours or a video of yours, but no one else will," said Adam Mosseri, the head of Instagram said on Friday.
Mosseri made the announcement at Wired 25, a symposium featuring leaders in tech, science and entertainment, NPR reported.
“It's about young people," Mosseri said. "The idea is to try to 'depressurize' Instagram, make it less of a competition and give people more space to focus on connecting with people that they love, things that inspire them."

Probably for selfish reasons. Being rich I dont care about, so much.
Quoting: Light of my Little Left Eye I'd hate it and no amount money or any material object, would make it worth it. Fame can also happen much by accident or an embarrassing moment and become a viral meme that ruin people's lives. Or from crimes being committed and people dying. The older I get the more I want to isolate myself from society/people completely. It's a clown show and we are slowly seeing the visible chains of our authoritarian future. Good video. He explains well what I was talking about here. Instagram is removing 'likes' is to combat this..
