It looks like Meta is having issues today, as Instagram is down and not refreshing its feed properly, and even Facebook, Messenger are having issues as well this March 5.
Instagram Down Status for March 5:
Based on our testing using multiple devices, Instagram is down and experiencing issues. This is mostly with the feed showing old posts, though don’t be surprised if the platform’s messaging system is affected too.
Not one to be left out of any social media commentary, Twitter (now X) owner Elon Musk has even issued a tweet about the outage regarding IG, Facebook and Instagram Threads:

We're aware people are having trouble accessing our services. We are working on this now.

We’re keeping an eye out on this one, and while Facebook seems to have sorted itself out, Instagram is still borked at the moment. We’ll update the article once more info about it surfaces.
