It’s safe to say that 2018 has been one of the most dramatic years in recent memory. The Trump presidency with all of its ridiculousness was in full swing, the Cambridge Analytica scandal broke out, people died, others were born, and through all of this one thing managed to slip under the radar: Instagram had a very good year. You can judge this based on the fact that seventeen of the top twenty most liked Instagram pictures ever were posted this year! Indeed, the most liked picture on Instagram, a picture posted by Kylie Jenner of her newborn baby’s tiny fingers wrapped around her thumb, received well over eighteen million likes, and the truly amazing thing is that the number of likes is still growing every day!
Pretty much all of the most liked pictures on Instagram have been posted by celebrities, thus proving the fact that Instagram has become a hub for such people and has given Twitter a serious run for its money as a social media site used by such people. Coming up second on the list of most liked pictures is a picture posted by Justin Bieber, specifically the one in which he announces his engagement to Hailey Baldwin who became his wife later on in the year. Bieber could have learned a thing or two from Jenner about being less verbose in his image caption, but he has always been the expressive sort.
There are some more sobering pictures among the most liked images on Instagram. Ariana Grande’s tribute to Mac Miller after the latter died of a drug overdose also garnered nearly thirteen million likes over the past year.
Xxxtentacion’s final picture posted before his death also got a similar number of likes, providing a look into his psyche before his untimely death.
