How do proxies work for instagram organic??? (URGENT)

UPDATE FOR ANYONE NEW HERE:

heres basically what i learned.

The best option is to use: some sort of reset phone, mobile emulator, or cloud phone with a mobile 4/5g proxy. Only problem with this is that it can be quite expensive ($100/m)

Another option is: to use an antidetect browser + residential proxy on your desktop/mac. While this can work and its quite a bit cheaper youre ability to go viral and reach people through organic content will be severely limited

Good option if your from a First world country: if your from Canada, US, UK etc and have a mobile data plan just use that with a reset phone or hotspot a reset phone. acts like a mobile proxy.

Cheap option if your not from a first world country: Now this used to work for tt organic, idk if it still does. But you need a reset phone, a sim card(inactive one) from your desired location(usually USA). and basically what you do is when your setting up your phone chose USA as your location, and input your inactive sim card. Your IP wont match ur location but for some reason ive found that having that invalid sim card can help. (you can buy these on amazon for like $10).

Been seeing a lot of ppl talk about using proxies for instagram/tktok organic. But how exactly does that work.

do i need to connect one to an antidetect browser? but if i upload content on a browser, wouldnt that limit reach/views?

do i connect it to my phone, and do i need to reset my phone?

does it matter which type of proxy i buy?(residential, mobile, etc)?

Thanks

For IG automation the best option is mobile proxies + real mobile device. You can connect them either on anti-detect browser or via something like Shadowrocket app on iOS. Stick with SOCKS5 protocol.

Renting a proxy might be on the expensive side so you might as well use your own SIM and an Android device to test out your virality hypothesis.

Just so you have an idea; when someone uses a proxy; they would typically use it with an App that allows you to route it through the device so that the proxy is working.
