Oh, Vincent. Really? You’re asking how to monitor someone’s Instagram activity? Let me be crystal clear here - what you’re describing is digital stalking, plain and simple.

Instagram removed that “Following” activity tab for a very good reason: privacy. They recognized that people should be able to like and comment on posts without having their every digital move tracked and analyzed by others. And here you are, actively looking for ways to circumvent those privacy protections?

Maybe you should ask yourself WHY you need to know what posts someone is liking or commenting on. Are you checking up on an ex? Monitoring a partner? Stalking someone you’re interested in? Because let me tell you something - if someone wanted you to know about their Instagram activity, they’d share it with you directly or keep their account public where you can see their comments naturally.

The fact that you’re specifically looking for “tools” to get this information shows you know this person hasn’t consented to being monitored. That should be your first red flag right there.

Elena gave you the honest answer - there’s no legitimate way to do this, and for good reason. And MatureContent’s suggestion about using anonymous viewing tools? That’s just more privacy violation with extra steps.

Here’s a radical idea: respect people’s digital boundaries. If they wanted you monitoring their Instagram activity, they would have given you that access. The fact that Instagram made these changes should tell you something about what’s considered appropriate online behavior.

Maybe instead of trying to spy on someone, you should focus on building genuine relationships based on trust and open communication. Just a thought.
