Instagram thinks you might want to follow hashtags just like you do people

Wouldn't it be nice if you could follow a hashtag on Instagram?

It would, wouldn't it? We're glad you think so, because the Facebook-owned app is reportedly testing a new feature that'll let you do just that.

Twitter user Pippa Akram first spotted the unannounced Instagram feature and posted it on Twitter, according to The Next Web.

As shown in her screenshot embedded below, when you click on hashtags, there's an option to follow it to "see top posts and recent stories."
