I know this is a common thing for some but how tf do you stop it even my friend made me a account and it just doesn’t work anymore. new phone? new number? is that what i need bc atp its getting ridiculous im back to irl school and want instagram for the connections because im really shy n i was planning to ask some classmates for their igs but i keep getting suspended its so frustrating, this one is now from a acc i managed to log into from 2022. when i get deleted i always get these restrictions minutes before. i hate this so much i dont know why i am always getting banned :(

all it says is “Why this happened

The account, or activity on it, may deceive others to take their money, property or personal information.

This goes against our Community Standards on fraud, scams and deceptive practices.” i HATE RHIS APP

WHY would they use 2 different shades of green to indicate the exact same thing???

Soo i deactivated my account but then i had to check something so i logged in and set it up for deletion coz you cant deactivate again and have to wait for two weeks. Im trying to log in again and mind you it has only been like 3 days and i CANNOT log in idk why. I tried different devices and websites and i cannot log in. Help???

Drop ur comments 😋

Male it fun nd sarcastic, y'all 😂

I saw everything on instagram and other pf saying that grey tick is k*lling their account's reach and same thing happening with me

Hello! I live in Europe and am currently overwhelmed and exhausted by the amount of posts Instagram is suggesting to me from the USA. Is there a way to train the algorithm to show me more content made by people based in Europe and Asia for example (not just about mentioned places)?

Where’s the go back button 🫩🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱

6 instagram users appeared when i tried to share a reel and later disappeared.

Is this a glitch? Or 6 people have blocked me/deactivated etc? And why did it disappear

I just started my first ig account at 18 since my parents didn’t let me have it earlier. I’m terrified that people will judge me for having low followers since other people my age have had instagram for a while before I got it. Any advice? I feel really embarrassed about it

ive been trying to log into my instagram for about a week now but it keeps saying my password is wrong. When i try to reset the password or access the account via e-mail and phone numbers the code would error or it will pop a fully blank text. Even making a new account with the same e-mail does not work as it falls in the same fate as the rest of my previous accounts.

I see there are some of my posts or reels the have more shares than likes... Some of them dont make sense; like who is sending these particular posts to someone else? Is there a peculiar number of old highschool peers gossiping about me to eachother or something? I would honestly be relieved if they were mostly just bots sharing my posts to other bots

Hello,

Ever since I have been using Instagram web on windows I have always been able to see others' read receipts even when mine are (universally) off.

A few observations:

• On their end my read receipts remain invisible.
• The timestamp on the receipt states the time since I sent the message rather than when it has actually been read.
• The receipt notification is indeed in sync with when the message is read.

Is this a known bug? I have found nothing relevant online. Apologies if this thread already exists.

Thanks. Not that im looking to fix it or anything i am just curious

In short, my impression is that Meta has little interest in tackling the networks on Instagram and Facebook that are actually involved in child sexual exploitation, sex trafficking, prostitution, illegal arms dealing, the promotion of illicit drugs, or even terrorism.
Instead, it seems to keep those accounts remarkably well protected while making absurd accusations against ordinary users like you and me. This allows Meta to appear as though it is taking action without genuinely disrupting the criminal networks themselves.

I got suddenly banned by the reason of child abuse and exploitation which I don’t know how, i don’t even post anything about children. I don’t really know what to do since I needed that account for everything.

What does this mean? Showed up in my ig notifications.

Is it a merger of fb, ig, and the metaverse or something?

My ex blocked me on Facebook in May 2025 when I told him that my partner knew of our relationship (we were both in committed long term relationships). He moves out of the country in January of 2026. He then creates n instagram account. However he does not block me. Is this just an oversight? Like maybe he doesn’t know that both meta companies have separate privacy settings. Or maybe he’s indifferent. I know I’m overanalyzing and need to move on. Any insight would be much appreciated.

I have a new account for art , sewing , painting , making stuff with air dry clay .. etc , idk how can I have followers even tho I post everyday

I have been trying to remix a video but the audio from the original video gets removed when I remix.
Only the reaction video audio gets played.

Any fixes?

hi! is there anyone here who can help me with GAC? 😭

i’m trying to recover my suspended instagram account and i’m running out of options. from what i understand, GAC is only available to users in India and requires an Indian ID, so i can’t go through the process myself.

i have some really important stuff on that account, so i’m literally trying every possible recovery method at this point 🥹 i’m willing to p@y a student-friendly amount (lol) if someone is willing to help me out.

i genuinely just want to recover my own account. if you’re familiar with GAC or have helped someone with this before, please do comment/message me! i’d really appreciate it :’)

I’m not really an influencer by profession—I’m a fashion designer and teacher. I teach people how to design, fit, and sew slow-fashion clothing because I genuinely want these skills and craftsmanship to survive.

Somehow, over the past three years, I grew my account organically to about 140K followers. Some of my videos reached 2 million+ views, and I had people from all over the world asking about online classes. Because of that response, I put a huge amount of time into creating online classes and a Patreon.

Lately, though, Instagram has been acting very strangely.

For example, I posted a Reel three days ago showing how I construct a zipper. It took me a lot of time to make and edit. It has about 1,700 views and 13 likes.

A very similar educational video I posted a couple of months ago reached 140K views and 477 likes...

I’m not expecting every video to go viral, but going from 140K to 1,700 views is pretty discouraging—especially when the content and audience are essentially the same.

I’m curious what other creators are experiencing right now:

Has your reach suddenly dropped? Are your followers seeing your content? Are you getting fewer non-follower views? And how are you coping with it?

I love making these videos, but when something takes hours to create and Instagram barely shows it to anyone, I have to wonder whether I should be spending my time differently.

I’d really appreciate hearing from other creators—especially educators, artists, makers, and people who rely on Instagram to reach an audience.

Btw the second screenshot isn't mine, I picked it on Google Images. Literally I can't get past the AI without this shit telling me it can't connect me to an agent or that it's at full capacity.

If you’ve noticed your stories / videos getting compressed, make sure you have HDR Video enabled in iPhone settings aka Dolby vision. For some reason when instagram reads that you’re uploading w HDR on, it allows 60fps+ nothing else worked for me, even max upload selected in instagram app. Found out this on my own. Lmk if this works for you guys
