Instagram public accounts with less than 1,000 followers can no longer go live
Instagram has implemented a new policy that restricts public accounts with less than 1,000 followers from going live on the platform. The company claims this change is aimed at providing the best experience for creators hosting live broadcasts and improving the overall usage of the feature. However, the reasoning behind this decision is not entirely clear. Additionally, the new requirement applies to both public and private accounts, although the change has only started rolling out to private accounts. This move effectively eliminates the ability to do livestreams for up to three close friends, a feature that was introduced by Instagram in 2024.
