Huge Instagram bug? Puts on zuck

Submitted by chadkroeger69420 t3_yidttm in wallstreetbets

Something weird going on with instagram. There’s been preliminary reports of many accounts suspended or losing followers in the past 24 hours. Probably the last thing meta needs right now. Check this graph: https://downdetector.com/status/instagram/

Edit: Had my personal, non-influencer/business instagram account suspended and heard the same from multiple friends. Started looking into it and this is all I could find so far.

Bet it's a Twitter engineer that works at both places and used his bot purger intended for his twitter job and accidentally uploaded it to insta. Haha

That’s odd. I logged in to check and saw I went from 6,667 to 6,660 followers. Maybe they’re purging bots? I only lost 7 out of that many, so idk what’s causing it.

Possibly, Instagram just tweeted that they are aware and looking into the problem.

See if you’re able to delete a recent search. I get an error that says it’s unable to delete those. What a weird problem lol

I cannot even access my account to do anything because it was "suspended for violating community guidelines" lol

That is a crazy bug lol. Guess you’re considered to be an extremist after posting that picture of your dinner last night.

They're blocking the Elon mashup where he fires the head counsel on the joe rogan show. You can't share it.
