So, my @youronly.one.ofcl account was suspended because I logged-in to #Instagram side and added a verification code to an older selfie upload. Now I no longer have access to the large #Filipino #Threads community.

This is the second time already, the first was my original account `youronly.one` and no one from Instagram assisted even after I went through their Face Verification process thrice.

Anyone who can lend assistance to get my `youronly.one.ofcl` account reinstated and have it placed in some whitelist so their automation scripts are not hitting it with false positives? I rarely login to the Instagram side because I don't need it, the only reason I have it is because Threads originally required an Instagram account.

So, this is far worse than I imagined. Because #Meta demanded to link #Facebook accounts to #Instagram last year, if your Instagram is gone, you won't be able to login to your Facebook either because it wants to be verified via Instagram—the two-factor authentication is useless.

Instagram's very high false positive, and not offering a channel to appeal the wrongful suspension, cut me off from not just the #Filipino community in #Threads but also from my network, friends, and relatives in Facebook.

The hard truth: the #Philippines and the Filipino people are at the mercy of Meta, in particular, Instagram.

@youronlyone @youronly.one.ofcl FWIW, I deleted my Instagram account last year and I can still log into Fb since then.

@croyle Maybe if it's deleted, it gets disconnected properly, but if it's suspended, everything linked to it gets suspended too?

I only linked my Facebook account because it was being forced on my account. And I only have Instagram because Threads originally required it. I very rarely login on Instagram, LOL, and now everything is inaccessible.

*sigh*

@youronlyone @youronly.one.ofcl That would be horrible, but nothing bad would surprise me from Zuck's Meta gang.

I have a friend that had an Insta account suspended for no apparent reason. I think she ended up having to make a new account there after getting no answers as to why her original account was suspended.

I wouldn't have deleted my Insta account if they hadn't driven me to do it.
