finsta
Private Instagram alias
A finsta is a secondary Instagram account, typically private, where someone posts more casual or unfiltered content for a smaller audience of close friends.
The term blends "fake" and "Insta," though the content is often more authentic than what appears on the user's polished main account: My finsta is just for my best friends.
The contrast with a "rinsta" (real Instagram) is ironic—the "fake" account shows the real person.
