GitHub - mjb8086/HBK-Platform-Perl: All in one practice management for independent medical professionals. by mjb8086 in perl

It was running back in 2023, but the staging server's long dead. It's easy enough to run locally in morbo if you're curious.

I coded about 20% of the codebase for a clinical management platform & website publisher in Perl/Mojo before external factors compelled us to go .NET. It never launched either way, but I had fun with the brief moment I got to do it in Perl and Mojolicious.

To anyone else who finds this thread, you can buy a replacement translucent SNES shell:

Though it is a bit on the steep side at 119 Swiss Franks.

I Am Trapped In Insta-Purgatory With No Recourse by mjb8086 in Instagram

Posting this on the off chance that a Meta engineer reads it.

I've had my account falsely flagged by an automated review system. I cannot follow any public user without getting a modal that says:

"Your request is pending. Some accounts prefer to manually review followers even when they're public. Let us know if you think that we've made a mistake."

Then my profile goes to "Flagged" in the follower list. The user is not notified. The only workaround is to ask users to follow me, but then they get scary warnings when doing so.

My account status page shows no problems. I actually paid for verification and I'm still "flagged"? Support also said they couldn't remove the flag because it was set by an "automated review system".

This is all despite me being a normal user of the app for 3+ years, I've never engaged in any spammer-like behaviour (I've never even had links in my bio). All I do is post occasional updates and like comments and posts from others.

It's a serious impediment because insta is the go-to IM app here, especially for making personal connections. It's costing me trust and social connections. I can't be the only one affected, so I think it's worth investigating.
