My Instagram post is only visible on my account

Hi, I'm having an issue with one of my Instagram posts and I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

The post is still visible on my account and still counted in my total number of posts, but when viewed from other accounts it's completely missing. When I share it to my story, the preview appears but it's not tappable/openable.

What's weird is that the post was definitely visible to others until around 2-3 days ago, then suddenly disappeared without me deleting or archiving it.

Additional info:
No music/audio on the post
No Account Status violations related to it
Reinstalling the app didn't help
Archiving/unarchiving didn't fix it
I also have another carousel post where certain images are visible to me but missing for other people

This is the second time Instagram has done something like this to my account, so I'm wondering if this is some kind of media/ indexing bug or silent restriction. I already submitted a report through "Report a Problem," but there's no way to track it.

Has anyone experienced this or found a fix?

Hi, I'm experiencing a bug with one of my Instagram posts and need help.

•	I have a post on my profile that I can see on my account, and it is still counted in my total number of posts.  
•	However, when I view my profile from other accounts, that post is completely missing.  
•	When I share the post to my story, it appears visually but is not tappable (people cannot open it).  
•	The post was previously visible to others (around yesterday), but later became invisible without me deleting or archiving it. 

For additional context:
• There is no audio/music on the post.
• My Account Status does not show any removed content related to this post.
• The only violation on my account is a story from about a year ago, which resulted in a temporary restriction where I cannot go live for around 27 days (for some reason still ongoing up until now).
This is the only current limitation on my account.

For anyone with info on how to fix this kindly comment since i’m irritated that this is the second time instagram has done this to my account. I already tried searching on the web about similar experiences but I couldn’t find any. I submitted a report through the shake to report something feature but my problem with that is it appears to be unreliable since you also can’t track progress of your report.
