This feature was spotted in testing a while ago and today it was announced by the Instagram team that it is rolling out to all users on all platforms.

It's not a setting for an individual post but rather a global account level setting that can hide all like counts around your feed. You may spot a notification banner on top of your feet highlighting this new feature as well.
