Nothing has really changed with Instagram since Facebook acquired it, there was the TOS debate but that was overblown. Instagram’s core operation is around being able to quickly take and share photos & adding filters etc and that hasn’t really changed.
The only thing they really have done, is launched on the web (they just launched on Android a few days before the acquisition) and scaled up the Instagram team. Likewise, they also enlarged photos on Facebook itself (although that was for everyone not just Instagram) - the fact that they haven’t even given them a tab in their app shows how autonomously Facebook have let Instagram run since acquiring it etc.
Having said that, Instagram now has to play by Facebook’s rules and I expect that we’re more likely to see further integration between the two going forward this year such as advertising etc.
