Restricting a user means their direct messages go to your message requests, and you won't get notifications for them. Out of sight, out of mind!

When you 'restrict' someone on Instagram, their comments on your posts are only visible to them unless you approve them. It's like putting them in a quiet corner!

Restrict means they can still see your profile and comment, but you get to decide if anyone else can. It's a subtle way to limit their interaction without blocking them.

It鈥檚 basically Instagram鈥檚 way of saying, 'I see you, but I don鈥檛 really see you.'

Just used the 'Restrict' feature on Instagram to handle a persistent commenter鈥攕o much peace now! Comments are hidden and DMs go to requests. Highly recommend.
