​Just finished a 3-day boost on a wildlife post. I hit 10,016 followers during the campaign, but within 24 hours of it ending, I’m back down to 9,945.

​I expect some drop-off after an ad, but losing 70+ in a day seems like more than just standard unfollows.

​Is Instagram prioritizing "cheap" follows from bot-heavy accounts during boosts only to purge them immediately after? Or is this just a reporting lag?

​Looking to see if anyone else has seen this specific pattern.
