Answer 1

When you unlink your Instagram account from Messenger, it generally means that the integration between the two apps is disabled. However, this primarily affects your ability to send messages between the two platforms and doesn't retroactively remove any past interactions or visibility.

What happens when you unlink:

1. Messaging Features: You won't be able to send Instagram messages through Messenger or vice versa.
2. Profile Visibility: Unlinking doesn't automatically remove your Instagram profile from any past interactions that the person might have had. If they already saw your Instagram profile through Messenger, that visibility remains unless you change your Instagram privacy settings.
3. Privacy Settings: If you want to restrict or limit who can see your Instagram profile, you may want to switch your account to private or adjust your privacy settings.

In summary, unlinking your Instagram from Messenger doesn't erase your profile or any previous visibility; it simply restricts the communication between the two platforms moving forward.
