So I've been exchanging messages with a verified account before, and they normally see and reply to most of my DMs in a matter of hours (they don't follow me back) I've decided to change my username slightly so it has my actual name in it. I've DMed this verified account again after I changed it, and they haven't seen my message which I sent 24h ago. Could it be that because I've changed my IG username, my messages land into their hidden inbox for them to have to accept the message request again? I thought changing the username didn't affect any of the account settings as IG recognises it's the same? Help, please.
