Hi,
Just to make sure, did you also unfollowed that account? Instagram suggested that users should find new accounts to follow if they want to remove the unwanted posts from their feed right away.
Good luck

I've had Instagram for years. This has not happened before. It's a recent glitch. I have a private account, I only follow acquaintances. Recommended accounts are identified as such and I ignore them. These are in the normal feed, not in the recommended accounts listing. And they are random things I have never shown an interest in on any platform. Makes no sense. This is not a normal Instagram behavior. These accounts have been blocked for weeks or months. They just started posting in my feed recently, still showing as blocked.

Well, I've no information if it's a glitch or a voluntary change made by Instagram, but you can try to report them this by going to Menu > Settings > Help > Report a Problem.

These are accounts that I never followed to start with. When I see something I don't like, I block it. None of these accounts have ever been followed by me.

It seems that Instagram also recommends accounts that you don't follow directly on your feed. I think when you block someone, it may take a while before you no longer see them, so you should start following new people to change your recommendations immediately.
