They nuked my account for some vague reason , I appealed it and they're like sorry sucks to be you.  It was odd I was at almost 97K followers then I started losing followers fairly rapidly then I kept getting prompts to " boost post " I clicked on it and they basically want you to pay them to reach a broader audience. I'm like Fuck Zuckerberg mother fucker isn't seeing any of my money he's rich enough. Looks like I'll be post exclusively on GetBig once again.

The “pay me” business model sucks. Same on Google. If you try to do an objective internet search on just about any topic, “sponsored” content is all you can easily get to. I recently tried to evaluate auto extended warranty companies and every single one of the “comparisons” or “ratings” was “sponsored”. Finally, on page 3, Consumer Reports said “don’t but it from anybody.”

Impressive to get that many followers; I put in minimal time into focusing on any Meta owned property It’s either they send you traffic from Nigeria or they eventually ban or shadow ban you.

TikTok is a much better option as of now, but I’m guessing Meta is lobbying to get it banned.

Dude. That's fucking bullshit. That was easily one of the best bodybuilding related IG's.

WTF?

No comparison to ND`s post,but a similar premise.... I sell vintage items on eBay and they are always telling me to drop my prices so that MY items will sell faster.

Fuck them,they have no idea what I paid for the items.......their just motivated by fucking greed......and have billions while I scrape by.

They're all in bed with each other. You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours. The government got Facebook and Instagram to ban content that they don't like as "misinformation" and now the government will restrict TikTok for "national security."

Social media is garbage, you should be happy they booted you. I have zero social media accounts.

That's true. It wasd the only real social media outlet I had I'm lamenting more over the fact they boot you and you really don't know why it's nonsensical. I'm not losing sleep over it, I heard they were trying to compete with Tik Tok so they wouldn't really promote people who posted pictures rather people who posted reels and then you factor in they basically want you to pay them which is silly.

Had no idea, would have followed.  Wonder who else here has other platform accounts that might be worth following?

I figured that. I would see the same pics pop up on GB and on the same day see the same pics on your IG.

I figured it was either your IG or you were taking screenshots and posting them here.
