Can someone explain how being blocked works on Instagram? or How does being blocked work on Instagram

Okay so here’s the *tea* on how being blocked works on Instagram:

- Their profile disappears for you but not for others.
- You can’t tag them or see their likes/comments.
- DMs stay but are frozen—no new messages.

Some ppl use tools like "Blocked on Instagram Checker" but tbh, Instagram doesn’t officially confirm blocks. Best bet? Ask a mutual friend to check their profile.
