 isn't that how most people view their feed?
I only see the latest posts of people that I follow, and that's it.

If I'm feeling adventurous, I'll go search with hashtags. 
 Yes. I’m confused. 
 its the latest note from everyone you follow, not just the most recent posts. instagram stories are like this, people who post a lot will appear at the front of the horizontal scroll list, but you can scroll through and see the latest note from everyone.

this is good for people who don't post a lot and get drowned out by by people who do. 
 I had not realized that I re-invented instagram stories 
 something nothing new under the sun something something ? 
 I see. Yes! That would be a huge improvement. Thank you for the explanation. 
 ty for explanation 
 There is probably someone you follow that has posted something while you were sleeping that you didn't see because other people you follow have posted dozens of times each after that and you missed that single post. 
 ohhh.
That's a UX fix then.
I think Instagram used to have that, and I actually appreciated (maybe twitter too? I forgot).

Basically: You keep scrolling in your feed until you reach a point where there'd be a UI line telling you "You've already seen posts past this point", and when I've seen that, I'd usually stop and go back to the top.
