Don’t know if this is relevant or the bug is available in other countries or on other devices but I have been getting it from yesterday.
I was changing the username of an account I own. It has 6 characters and it starts with the letters “mi”. As I was deleting the letters one by one when I got to “mi”, instagram showed the green check that it is available .
Yes I tried to save it but it stopped and said not available.
I even went to create a new account and instagram says its available
Yes I know someone has that account already. (I just got hyped seeing the green.)
See screenshots…
