Ask HN: Instagram hashtags down/seriously delayed?

2 points by q-base 9y ago ↗ HN

It might be only me, but it seems as though all hashtags are 4-5 hours "delayed". I do photography and if I see some of the popular hashtags as for instance #500px the most recent one is from 4-5 hours ago. All hashtags I look at seem to have this, which surely can't be right. Is it only me seeing this?

Glad someone posted about this. I feel the same. Feels very weird for your insta post to not have a single like.

Then it is not only me having the issue at least. But yeah I think your posts only reaches your followers, not people based on hashtags.
