Now, Instagram conversations even on the computer

Instagram is making it even easier to send direct messages.

The company confirmed on Friday that you will now be able to chat on Instagram and on the computer, and this has started today at 10:00, writes The Verge.

Instagram has been testing this with a small group of users since January, and has now launched globally.

He also made changes by merging a chart with emoticons, and added a gallery to view photos and videos.

Browser is especially important for people who use Instagram all the time, such as reporters, influencers or social media managers.

This is the easiest way to communicate privately on this platform, especially for people who need to respond to hundreds of messages every day.

Whatsapp applies restrictions on messaging

Whatsapp has decided to impose additional measures to limit the distribution of posts on the platform in an effort to prevent misinformation.

The very popular Facebook-owned communication app said the messages which have been reposted 5 times at a time will already have a new limit.

The company said users can re-send a message to just one person at a time. Last year WhatsApp set a limit on sending messages to only 5 people at a time.

The social network Facebook has taken numerous measures as the world faces the COVID-19 pandemic by launching an information center or providing tools for Messenger developers.

The service used by more than 2 billion users reduced the volume of messages sent by 25% worldwide. Since WhatsApp's end-to-end encryption prevents the company from reading messages, it uses "flaws" to apply the new measures.

Google gives Chrome users one more reason to stay

After a 360-degree turn last month, Google recently launched chrome 81 which brought Tab Groups.

Google has given Chrome users enough reason to give up the browser including controversial changes, security issues and privacy concerns. But recently Google introduced a new enough feature as a reason to stay.

After a 360-degree turn last month, Google recently launched Chrome 81, which brought in Taboo Groups and is the biggest change in the way Chrome has been running for 11 years since its launch.

As the name suggests, Tabs Groups are the new way to organize the many tabs you have opened at once in Chrome and it's easy:

Right-click on an open tab
Select the "Add to new group" option
Drag the tab you want to this group
From there you have many customization options available. By clicking on the tab title you can select colors, remove tabs from the group, and close all tabs in the group.

You can also switch tabs from one group to another. Tab groups will change the way you use Chrome. You will no longer need to keep multiple windows open for different projects because they can all coexist in a single one.

Chrome 81 is available for Windows, Mac and Linux from now on.
