An Instagram pod is a group of people who have come together to like and comment on each other’s Instagram posts. The idea is that by doing so, they will get more engagement on their posts, helping them grow their Instagram following. Pods can be private or public, typically consisting between 10 and 20 users. 

The goal of an Instagram pod is to help its members increase their reach and engagement, which in turn can lead to more followers. When a pod member posts a new photo or video, the other pod members will like and comment on the content, helping to push it up the Instagram algorithm and increasing the chances that more people will see it. There are various pod styles across many social media platforms, such as Whatsapp, Facebook groups, Telegram, and many more.
