In a normal Instagram post, if we put the hashtag Pride in the photo comment, it will be written in the colors of the rainbow. This is in relation to hashtags, although we also found other details related to Pride.

In a story that we have made, when we place the hashtag Pride, if we look at the suggestions we will see stickers in which the text is accompanied by a rainbow , another nice detail with which to decorate our Stories and show solidarity with the collective.
