I don't think they're accurate. I made a new instagram account and didnt friend my other accounts to check. That works better. i saw that my accounts were shadowbanned that way.

I have an account with 25k followers that I feel got hit like this, I was getting more interactions when I had 5k followers than I do now. I keep telling myself that was just because I was follow botting at the time and the extra likes/comments came from those "who is this following me, let me look at their account" connections. The alternative, that my account is permanently in some unknown purgatory makes me pretty sad. Which I could know for certain whats up.

After 3 months of not botting I have decided to go back to it today. I thought by stopping all botting and going back to manual interaction my account would revert back.
I cant keep getting 200 likes with 32k followers... it's embarrassing and makes me look like I bought followers.
Im just setting the bot up to like 800 pics a day.
This way my pics will get more likes on my current pics. It's better than nothing. :/

It sucks that even after three months you're still not out of the SB. I'll probably end up doing the same thing, I used to get 100k views for views, nah I'm lucky to get 10k.
