Experience resting accounts to improve reach?

[Aveil]

I’m currently resting one of my accounts for a week since I’ve always heard of this method and wanted to test it.
Have you ever tried this? Could you share your experience?

You think thats a logic thing? IG will reward inactive accounts? Why would they do that?

Yes I can find a few reasons why, but still I’m doing it precisely to test it because I don’t know if it’s actually a thing.
Example, you follow/unfollow a lot, you bot your account, you do whatever sketchy method, you stop for a while and it may lift whatever limit they have put into your account just as a matter of time. Other example, they wouldn’t want people to stop using IG so if you seem to be gone and come back they may improve your reach so you decide to stay.
Again, these and more are examples I’ve read about here a thousand times, so I thought I just might test it out.

Danny it's correct, resting can only damage ur acc, what works it's temporary disable for 1/2 weeks

Correct. But is your reach temporarily disabled? Or is it that your posts aren't that good?

I understand what everyone is saying here. OP may have a reason to think his reach has been temp disabled, or (ghosted). With Instagram's new algorithm, it's hard to tell if your reach is going down because your posts aren't relevant, or if it's something that the algo detected and is now fully/partially/ghosting your reach.

If your reach is way lower than it used to be, it won't hurt to rest it for a while. I mean, if you were getting 1K likes before, but now only 300, resting is really the only way to go.The account is already phucked.

How can it damage the account? Most people (outsife IM) don’t use their account every day religiously and would you say this ‘damages’ their account?

I’ve also read here about people who tried the disabling method and it killed their account for good so I thought I might try the other one.

What resting? Have you stopped posting? I've stopped posting for a week once and the reach dropped in half.

Stopped everything, not even loggin into the account.

I won't recommend it, man. It will damage your reach. Stop botting, but continue doing organic stuff like posting, liking pictures and viewing stories.

I tried myself not with “others words” and it works

If you stop doing all the actions in one time, you’ll kill your acc.

my 31.2k page was inactive for a week cause my grampa died and I just couldn't bring myself to do shit on insta.

I'm at 31.1k now, dropping about 10 followers per day now, and getting 60-70% of the likes I did before.... all while not being able to reach more than 5% new accounts :/ FML...
