If you're trying to inject some positivity into your Instagram posts,romantic eroticism the new Pinned Comments feature could help. The feature, which Instagram started testing back in May, is officially now available everywhere.

Instagram's VP of Product, Vishal Shah, took to Twitter to announce that you can now pin a few (of what will likely be your favorite) comments to the top of the comments thread on your posts.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

This is just one of a few new features Instagram announced a few months back to help limit the harassment and bullying that goes on within the social media app. Other features include the ability to delete comments in bulk and choose who can tag and mention you on specific posts.

You can pin up to three comments to the top of your post at a time, all of which will appear right underneath your photo with a "Pinned" label underneath it. If you try to pin more than three, you'll receive a notification reminding you of the limit.

But you can easily swap out pinned comments for new ones. To unpin a comment, simply swipe to the left and tap on the thumbtack icon again.

But it's important to note each user receives a notification if their comment is pinned. So, you might want to really think about whose compliments you're choosing to place front and center.

Regardless, perhaps the ability to pin comments might encourage more people on Instagram to want to post niceones in the hopes that theirs will get pinned to the top — a very tall order, I know, but a girl can dream.
