I have an important update to share with you. As many of you may know, my Instagram account, which had over 100K followers, was removed by Instagram for a TOS violation a few months back. Unfortunately, Instagram's customer service is limited, and its policies lack transparency, so I’m still unsure of the exact reason behind this decision. My new Instagram handle is @gabrieldishaw.
