Instagram even acknowledged the problem, recently stating “We’re aware that some of you are having issues accessing your Instagram account. We’re looking into it and apologize for the inconvenience.” So far this seems to be a widespread issue, as many big Instagram accounts are showing massive drops in follower counts. And these drops are not bots getting zapped from the platform, but real people getting suspended. While the platform is working fine for most people, users who were recently suspended are still not able to access their account. If you look at Instagram’s social media accounts, people are all over the comments box complaining about not being able to log into their accounts, along with a suspension notice threatening deletion in 30-days. – Emma Roth, TheVerge

– Ryan, Twitter user If we tried the appeal option before we we’re aware it was a glitch, will we still be able to access our accounts again once this is fixed? – Kyle, Twitter user Yeah I feel like when we all attempted to do the “disagree with decision” the system automatically declined it and suspended our accounts. – Jax, Twitter user — Samuel Putra (@SamuelP9797) October 31, 2022 While most people are still locked out their accounts, some people were able to login again after repeated attempts. If you are still locked out, try logging in after some time as Instagram still seems to be working on the issue.
