I’m currently on my highest streak (24 days yay). I stopped using instagram for a while because it has explicit porn all over it.
Now I’m back using it, with more self control and it’s good for now.
Unfortunately in the past I was using Instagram to search for porn pics etc, and now my “Explore” section has many of these photos. (the AI working)
Does anybody know how to “reset” this thing? cuz I don’t want to fall into a relapse in the future(for now I’m good and I’m not searching for anything indecent). Plus, I don’t want my girlfriend to see these pics in my profile.
I don’t think any way we can change that as of my understanding. Probably create a new account and everything starts from the beginning. If you still searching over the new account then I am sure you need to stay away from instagram or any social media.
What is my perception is that the user has already searched many p*rn images/videos a lot. That’s why now images are appearing on Instagram everywhere.
The green square box highlighted can be “select not interested” which comes as a feed but the red square box images/videos appear by Instagram AI which not in our control. This is my understanding. Feel free to suggest or correct if I’m wrong.
I have a solution for it.
First of all unfollow all useless and erotic pages.
But as you have seen and liked so many pics before. They are still going to appear in explore page. What you have to do is go on any topic on explore page like food or architecture and like some few pics there. And then they will appear on your explore page instead of erotic pics.
But still I recommend you to uninstall ig as it is useless and waste of time.
THERE’S a way . Manually go to every Such Post which you don’t want to see. And from options (those 3 dots on right top corner ) . Select not interested . Do this for every unwanted post you see Your feed . Eventually , the Algorithm of Insta will stop showing you That . And Plus start searching for Different better Things and Like Good post . Don’t like Bad posts .
I guess you could just change your browser and use another account. But anyways, you (and all of us honestly) should stop using Instagram; Its content is anything but healthy.
Yes , I have already given it up . Its all bullshit there nothing useful. I am saving hrs daily after giving up Instagram. Its also a kind of addiction .
My opinion is that Instagram is an addiction, very bad and so on. But I do think it has a good side worth exploring.
The problem here is that we are tempted to the wrong things. We always search for the bad, to try to fill something inside us, like porn or anything that kills time/life.
But we can have a good time on Instagram, chatting with friends, seeing good content.
I don’t know, man. Maybe I’m too hopeful and positive.
IMO I wouldn’t even bother trying; it’s just a hole of attention whores taking selfies and memes. If i would like to chat with my friends, there are a lot of alternative apps. but, in the end it all rests on your choice, do what you consider best ; )
