Instagram has made an amazing update last night! For only today 04/01/2017, When you post a picture of a potato on Instagram, and use the hashtag #AprilPotato you will instantly gain over 10k likes and a ton of comments! If your account is struggling to get a good engagement rate, doing this trick will give your account an amazing advantage! This is so cool! Comment below if it works for you! #UPDATE This topic is not factual, and was an April Fools prank. ---

@BrandonBerner: Could you please help me? Two minutes after uploading the potato-pic, something happened. I have problems to get access to my account with about 3.5 Mio. Followers. Thank you for your support. ![](https://mpsocial.com/uploads/default/original/2X/7/724429aeaecad4b64d60570ec84759cb64426742.jpg) I have also received a message from IG: "It is okay, if you post a pic of a **penis-potato** , but the hashtag #Aprilpotato is banned. We banned it to punish @BrandonBerner who came to the U.S. to drink all available coffee (as he is a coffee junkie ☕ AND addicted). If you want to get your account de-banned, please pay for Brandon’s rehab center 🏥 or make a donation to his fund to make him stay in Canada 🍁 : > [@\[CLOSED\] hot\_beverage Brandon Berner's Coffee Fund hot\_beverage](http://mpsocial.com/t/brandon-berners-coffee-fund/5683): > > [image] ##I Am No Longer Accepting Donations Lately I have been receiving lots of messages from forum members wanting to pay me to answer their questions, or want to buy me a cup of coffee or beer for my contribution on this forum. After many requests, I have finally created a donation page for those who want to encourage my coffee addiction by donating any amount of their choosing. All proceeds will go directly to Tim Horton’s and the occasional gourmet Statbucks beverage. If my answers hav… Thank you." ---

> [@Adnan](#): > > I just got 20K followers on one of my accounts So, I just calculated it: +20k followers for you, @Adnan, is an increase of +0.001% for this account. Don’t worry, everybody has now and then a bad day. 😐 ---

Yeah, mhm, OK… and if you post a picture of a unicorn pooping out ice cream and use hashtag #aprilpotty, you’ll get your account verified instantly and Sylvia from the IG staff will get fired so she can come work and feed you grapes while you enjoy the lavish lifestyle of an IG billionaire 🙂 ---
