Instagram par “Restrict” ka kya matlab hai?

Instagram ka Restrict feature ek subtle tarika hai kisi user ke interactions limit karne ka—bina unhe pata chale. Jab aap kisi account ko restrict karte hain toh:

Restrict vs. Block vs. Mute vs. Unfollow

Agar aap confuse hain ki kis option ka use karein, toh yeh difference samajhna zaroori hai:

• Restrict – Comments aur messages limit karta hai bina notify kiye.
• Block – Pure interaction ko band kar deta hai (Posts, DMs, Stories sab hide ho jaate hain).
• Mute – Unki posts aur stories aapke feed mein nahi dikhengi, lekin woh aapko dekh sakte hain.
• Unfollow – Aap sirf unko follow karna band karte hain, lekin agar aapka account public hai toh woh aapke posts dekh sakte hain.

Agar aap kisi ko completely hataana chahte hain toh block best hai, lekin agar aap bina notice diye limit karna chahte hain toh restrict use karein.

✅ Online bullying se bachaav – Negative comments aur harassment ko rokne ke liye.
