Question about "Top posts"

Hi guys. So when I post a pic it always appears in "Top posts" across a number of hastags I use, but what annoys me is that it can only be seen from my profile. If I try to look up those hashtags while being logged out, I see that my picture is topping only half of the hashtags I used. I do can find my pic in the feed of a particular hashtag, but it's never on top. Is that some kind of shadowban or what? How does this shit work?

Thats not a shadowban.. check in a few hours it will be there.

I experience this all the time. Its very confusing to be honest I don't know if IG does it to please the user into thinking is trending or what. I always check tags on an incognito windows because of this

Hi somebody here know how i can find the top posts on ig, a tool or something please

This is normal. Everyone sees different top posts depending on how involved they are in the niche.
