Engagements Dropped Suddenly

Hi,

I've got a modest Instagram following, with what used to be an average of 200 likes per post and ranges from 300-1000 story views as of recently too.

However, it seems out of the blue, post likes have fallen to nearly half (and on many occasions even less!) and I'm not sure how to help that?

Is there any way of checking a shadow ban? I've followed tips online and it still appears that posts are hitting hashtags etc, but I shared a recent poll on my story to see if followers are seeing my posts and their timeline and an alarming amount said no.

Did you take a break and post after a long while?

Is content similar to what you were posting before? Any changes in hashtags that you mad?

About the visibility of your content, the algorithm is designed in such a way that only a certain percentage of followers will see your posts, only if they like/engage with you is when the post would go further and be shown to other followers.

Nope, still daily posts. Content and hashtags are still same, if not more frequent posts than before.
