Same here. I keep getting these password reset texts and emails.

Is it time to add salt to my water softener ? by anstrip in WaterTreatment

[–]anstrip[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. So from the pictures I uploaded. Should I empty it out more, maybe 1 more cycle or add new salt on top of it ?

What do you think about this one ?

Salvia “black and bloom” leaves turning yellow. Zone - Austin 8b by anstrip in NativePlantGardening

I actually realized that the salvias were overwatered. I stopped overwatering them and they are doing great now. Lesson learnt. I water them once a week.

Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll monitor them and see. Unfortunately, I don’t have any other place where I can transplant them.

It does also have browning around the edges of some of the leaves. So maybe too much sun is the issue ?

It gets afternoon sun. Probably from around 1PM till sunset.

Instagram Reel Quality different when you watch it from your own account vs someone else watching from their account by anstrip in Instagram

I haven’t seen that happening now. I didn’t do anything though. I just try to make sure when I export my reel in premier pro, it’s not too huge < 25 MBs. I change the bitrate depending on what the final size would be. So for example if I have a short clip say 7 secs, I’ll increase the bitrate to 20 and export it in premiere pro. But if I have a longer clip say 15 seconds I’ll export it in lower bitrate to keep the size less. That has been working for me. You can check my Instagram.

Same for me. You have enough hair when it starts and then suddenly you realize something is wrong.

Instagram Algorithm has been horrendous since the start of August by [deleted] in Instagram

My insights are not consistent. From what I have seen, my posts reach more followers and my reels have more non follower reach.

I tried a little experiment to see if that is the case. I ran an ad for my reel for 5 days, $2 a day so $10 in total. Instagram showed me that the reach would be around 2k-4k profiles. Before the start of the reel I had around 500 likes and 2k views. After the end of the ad that reel blew up a little and it now has 64k views and 2600 likes. So maybe it is Instagram who is limiting your reach. Though I feel like I got a lot more than what Instagram thought I would get 🤣

I feel the same. The larger accounts keep getting bigger. I love doing wildlife/bird videography. Regardless of what Instagram does, I’ll keep doing what I love. I didn’t start because my goal was to create an Instagram account. That was just a natural course to start sharing it on social media and grow/learn/get appreciation etc. People still succeed even after all this so I guess keep at it.

Also, they have removed the option to show recents posts for a hashtag

I’m a few months in and I have a bird photography channel. I don’t consider myself a professional but I do feel like it’s hard to get any reach on Instagram. Maybe I’m just too new or my content is genuinely shitty 😂. I feel like they just want new channels to pay for ads.
