  • andreiadoodles Andreia 💫 (@andreiadoodles) reported

    @katrinwhat I think even twitter and instagram sometimes cause problems for nsfw art so it doesn't even seem to be just a tumblr problem to me. And yeah, I guess it depends on luck because I still see ****** on tumblr xD

  • _MysticMeg_ meg 🌻 (@_MysticMeg_) reported

    @hannahwild__ i’ve seen loads of people say the same thing is happening to them. like hundreds. it’s obviously an @instagram issue rather than a problem with us as users but it seems there’s literally no way to sort it out???

  • furkanaibani Furkan Aibani (@furkanaibani) reported

    @BanubaFaceAR To be honest Indian apps are working hard that’s brilliant but tiktok is on another level, no one can reach or touch that level on short video app. In India the only company which is in Profit after the ban is Instagram and YouTube which is not Indian

  • tobss_94 T.JP (@tobss_94) reported

    @anightmarepod @instagram What do you mean by blocking and resetting ? I’ve been told just to wait for it to fix itself, but do you have something else I could do?

  • DJFozzz 🧙‍♂️The Wizard of Fozz 🧙‍♂️ (@DJFozzz) reported

    @notsosecretnat @Jenewing Blocking does sound easier I have more issues with Instagram with dodgy accounts than on here admittedly

  • SChatlani Suuraj Chattlani (@SChatlani) reported

    @instagram having such a problem with insta ads. Every week there’s some issue. Like ‘charge failed’. It’s the same card I use. Sometimes it works for 1 week then disabled again. Nothing smooth about it whatsoever. Really fed up! Help!

  • iamthatfemale Hika_Lyimo (@iamthatfemale) reported

    Instagram not working or what?

  • Noziphoapp aphile (@Noziphoapp) reported

    @suklovebot Wait now need to go camp on your Instagram actually haven't gotten around to doing so... I'm so sorry...is your laptop fine or is it broken?

  • PolAguilar27 ploman🦇⛓️ (@PolAguilar27) reported

    @instagram Im having some problems with my instagram account, its possible to you to follow me so i can send you a private message explaining my problem?

  • dredviperr dredviper (@dredviperr) reported

    @livvboardman @InstagramComms @instagram Kindly send me a dm i can fix it

  • teacherlife_02 JMary (@teacherlife_02) reported

    @ZoeParamour I also dislike: if you work hard you can achieve anything. As though working hard equates to success or money. I’m pretty sure someone who has three jobs cleaning buildings works ‘harder’ than a footballer or a Instagram star

  • ghxdyy ☹︎ (@ghxdyy) reported

    1) hi twitter, i’m asking on literally every social media I have because maybe someone can help or have the same problem so rts are very appreciated pls. My instagram account got disabled 26 days ago because someone copied my acc and reported me for “ impersonation “

  • ericshayhoward Eric Shay Howard (@ericshayhoward) reported

    I mean we're all stuck in our homes with a lot of time to kill, but apparently liking photos on Instagram is a problem these days.

  • mrjagz07 i need friends (@mrjagz07) reported

    @_MysticMeg_ @instagram Ik!!! I’ve been reporting it as an issue and everytime I just locks me back out and makes me change my password I have no idea!! It makes no sense

  • itsfatimahputri FATIMAH (@itsfatimahputri) reported

    Hello, @instagram and @YouTube @TeamYouTube TC Candler, who has more than 1 Million followers, has made a joke which is not suitable and offended many fans. They refuse to fix their mistake by responding in an immature way. Please take action towards their unprofessionalism.

  • PaulH74NM Paul Harrison (@PaulH74NM) reported

    @iamRobbinYoung @Twitter @TwitterSupport I think something technical is wrong at the moment, my account shows the same error. Sadly I no longer have (or want) Instagram or Facebook accounts, I'm only "active" on here.

  • anightmarepod Once Upon a Nightmare (@anightmarepod) reported

    Seriously @instagram sort yourself out! Been about a week of issues! #instagramdown #ukinstagram
