As an amateur photographer I used instagram to share my photos and connect with other photographers trough hashtags it was an effective way to share my work with others, noticed that hashtags are not working anymore, I used to use different hashtags to get likes or views and get in touch with other photographers and also people that are not into photography but like and share my stuff, can’t see the purpose of instagram if I can’t do this anymore is seems that Meta is slowly killing instagram, is there any place to share photos and and build a network of people who appreciate photography besides instagram?

    Maybe it’s the stuff you’re posting. Is it your best work? Is it only your photography or are you slipping in some vacation pics or unrelated content? I recently watched a Scott Kelby session on this very thing. People that follow you for photography content will be turned off by off-topic posts and will likely unfollow you. Have a look back at your posts and see if you can find off-topic posts and then remove them. Then do some research on the very best hashtags to use.
