@dean_collister has created an imposter account, using my images, to abuse, harass and fake my identity, which is in direct violation of Instagram's policies.

The fake account created *******@dean_collister can be easily found by *******@charlesdoesguitarfan

My account *******@charlesdoesisaguitar

Here comes the indisputable evidence again.

Charles *******@charlesdoesisaguitar

I will not stop until the fake account is removed.

Exposure
July 29, 2022

It has impacted my brand and business as well. I have been able to reach out to more people because of the exposure that Instagram creates for me. Varying from my music to my events that I am putting together, it makes sense to heavily market your product through this platform. My exposure by word of mouth would have not been as great without Instagram

App review
January 5, 2023

This is a very usefull app for me The videos do not have an instructor talking you through the workout, explaining good form or what muscles to target. They also don't give you any transition time between exercises. Also ever time I log into the app it asks me to make an in app purchase, which is very frustrating considering I already bought my program just to use the app at all. That being said, I'm going see how I feel about the actual workouts by the end of the month

Total control
September 2, 2022

Instagram has no freedom of speech. They will delete ur comments if its not to their interest, meanwhile they spy on ur conversations trough ur phones microphone and they bombard you with tons of ads. We need something new. Bye instagram.

Last I checked we are a free speaking country. Instagram is a social media platform. I not employed by them nor are they a part of the legal system. They cannot police free speech and they have been getting away with it for a very long time. We do not work for them they were made to work for us. So I say f u c k you instagram.

Worst piece of garbage, always lags, alwyas not loading elements, anti-intuitive, not user friendly, impossible to work from laptop, anti-business, a piece of crap. Surely made by morons, this should no longer exists. Please destroy it and end this mania.

Waste of space Now
August 13, 2022

Anything owed by Facebook forget it... waste of life space, not user friendly and adopts the same unsafe polices as facebook, open to hacking, spamming, non privacy policy.

Once instagram was bought by FB then down the tube it went.

Very poor customer service! Years ago they use to be very prompt in answering and didn't have copy/paste automated responses. I can't even get an account removed that is not only infringing on my copyrighted work but also pretending to be me & copy/pasting my work. It's been over a week and Instagram has done nothing but sent me back automated responses.

I've sent in reports under copyright infringement & impostor. NOTHING has been done. Their report function is a joke now, they don't care at all about their users. You can't even contact them to talk to an actual person. I wouldn't be surprised at this point if they don't even read any of the reports sent to them.

Instagram has practically zero customer support. I got locked out and no explanation was given. To add to that I couldn't get any help. I haven't even started posting and just started to follow a few people. If only they manage their policies better rather than just for making money, since Instagram is part of Facebook...

What a stupid website. For some reason every time I tried to post an image, the picture was so blurry. For a website that's about sharing pictures I don't know why they make the images so blurry.

Also the only way to get any sort of likes and followers (because we all know those are the only important things in the world right now) you must be a celebrity or influencer/youtuber/whatever they call themselves these days. Take constant selfies, take photos of your bubble tea and post it on instagram. And wow you'll get some likes and followers.

Honestly, instagram is a waste of time. It's also really boring.

Deactivated for no reason
February 17, 2023

My Instagram account has been around for a while, and while to some it may have seemed common or even dull, it was all about my life.
Last week, a notification stating that my account had been suspended due to a violation of community rules appeared when I tried to log on. Despite my confusion, I managed to jump through all the hoops necessary to regain access to my account. Another message followed, informing me that my account would not be reviewed and had been deleted. I even called Instagram's 800 number (simply an automated voice), but it says it can't help. I've attempted several times to request that it be examined again.
I'm unable to contact a live person, so I have no idea why it was deactivated.

Instagram for business is the best social media platform for me I personally really like because it is not just for sharing pictures,reels and stories but also I am working most of the time to promote the businesses and increase the sales. I run paid ads on Instagram see the insights of progress of that ad and the most important and great feature of Instagram business is that it allow us to targeted audience for our product and services as a result we get more sales so that is the most favourite thing which I like in this platform.

All my friends recommended it for me, so i created an account to try it. I don't feel it's that unique, but not bad at all. No harm of exploring these social apps or websites, but i'm not a fan for instagram so far.

The amount of nudity i find on instagram is ungodly. If it's males, then instagram will remove the post. If it's female nudity then instagram rejects your report and says they don't violate the community guideline. It's honestly disappointing. I swear im not lettingg any of my children get this app until they're 18. So many disturbing pictures nowadays. Women posting nudes acting as dogs, women just posting nude in general.

Keeping the account public means every person is feeling that they could write any bad comments, I have noticed that many of the people are using abusive language and making very bad comments on actresses posts and creating fake accounts on their names and posting the bad images of heroines in their accounts. Any person who make such comments should be taken into action.

I loved this social media, I used it to find and support small artists and performers. There's always been a bit of censorship as far as women's bodies and risque art were concerned but artists I love and follow have been leaving in droves. Instagram was a hub for the visual arts and a platform for the nontraditional. It's loosing its individuality and edge. It's the same thing that happened to You Tube. The Mountain VVitch deleted most of his content after it was repeatedly flagged, Lance Inkwell had to censor the drawing he did as a response to his brother's suicide.

I tried to set up an account on Instagram and an automatic pop-up told me someone was already using my email on Instagram. I emailed them about it 3 times and they have completely ignored me. The person using my email has an name written in Arabic script and is a male. I am a female with an American name. Instagram does not care to correct this situation,

Well I view Instagram as just another social media site to post on. They are pretty user friendly. With all the social media sites out there it really would be nice to just have one that the world dealt with.

Instagram couldn't send a link to reset password, not to respond to email, when i called them technical support whole day, they find way to charge for help center, hacking.
They are terrible, just repeating characters for username and email address, they were like elementary school with weird accent and force linking on facebook page to get all information, still not able to retrieve password, then they hang up on me and are very rude.
