Changes to the crappy platform again

Instagram had two updates that added AI to detect follow like and comment bots. Chances are that if you had a lower amount of engagement right around the time that the AI update launched (around 1 - 2 weeks ago) you may be being botted[DOUBLEPOST=1563054215][/DOUBLEPOST]I say may be being botted because not every account that is getting blocked by the new AI is a bot.

But I was getting 800+ likes before and now only 300, they weren't bots?

Even if they aren't botted, if an account doesn't meet a certain verification requirement then that account could get disabled, or the like/comment etc. that the user made could be filtered and removed/not registered all together.

The new AI update is overall confusing and there's really no good general way of explaining what it did to Instagram. It did mess up a lot of actual features along with botting[DOUBLEPOST=1563054488][/DOUBLEPOST]

People could still be liking your posts, but it may not show until Instagram does something about their update (doubt it)
