Did you guys see this?
I saw this on my newsfeed and thought it was different and new. I wonder if you guys noticed this too.
As I scrolled through, i noticed only blue-ticked accounts were on there.

When I tapped on one of those cards, it brought me to a dedicated “Guide Page” where they had a short blurb of what the series is about, then it showed a a listed set of Posts from that account:
When you tap on one of those listed items, it brings you to their feed post.
Then I tried to figure out if an account can point to the guides without relying on the newsfeed to promote the guides.
So I clicked on one of the accounts, and I noticed a new category of posts an account can have.
Here’s a direct link to one of the example Guides:

I wonder if these Guides will be rolled out to other large accounts versus only blue ticked (sort of the like the Swipe Up).
They might be handy to assemble a series of posts on the feed this way. - Especially if your account talks about various topics:
ex: Fitness Guides can be about: Ab Workouts, Legs, Chest… etc.

What do you guys think of these?
