What does ‘No Posts Yet’ mean on Instagram?

When Instagram displays ‘No Posts Yet’ on a user’s profile, it generally tells you that the user is yet to post content on their Instagram feed. This is seen for most of the new profiles on the platform. While the ‘No Posts Yet’ message is used to indicate that the user doesn’t have any content to display on their profiles, another common reason behind the issue is when the user has blocked the person visiting their profile.

However, considering that this is just a bug, it is highly likely that you haven’t been blocked by most of these profiles displaying the message. So, as long as you haven’t been blocked by these users, you should regain access to their profiles once the issue is fixed.

How to check if you have been blocked on Instagram?

As long as the issue persists, you may not be able to tell if it’s the bug causing the issue or you have actually been blocked as both the occurrences display the exact same message and appear the same. However, if the person has already shared some content before, you should be able to see their total post count, which is displayed right next to the main profile picture. So, if a profile has shared a post earlier, but if you are still encountering the ‘No Posts Yet’ message, it means that the user has blocked you.
