I am looking for an active Instagram that posts misc Trek related stuff, but keeps everything considering real life issues away. As most of us know, Star Trek is what we go to to take a break from whatever happens in the world. Any good tips? I have tried Tumblr and there things look better than Instagram but there is too much stuff related to fan fictions where characters have relationship with other characters than they do in the official story we all know and like. This can be confusing.
Active "No Nonsense" Trek Instagram?

A Google search turned up exactly Nothing fitting this criteria.
Search by hashtags instead?
It is what I did and following those hashtags was not a good idea. What I wonder is if anyone here knows about any such instagram that You follow?
It depends on what specific stories you are looking for. For example, if you are a fan of Marvel or DS, then you should look for something similar on forums on the Internet that are dedicated to these universes and characters. Most likely, you will find something very quickly, but such accounts do not last long. I have worked with different accounts, advertised them and such accounts are not in great demand, and they wind up their subscribers using this service https://famoid.com/buy-instagram-followers/ to be in the top among similar instagram accounts. If you want alternative stories, you can read fan comics or stories. There are a lot of such stories on the Internet, you just need to search.
Kind of scratching my head here, as my experience is the best Star Trek tackles the issues of the day. I mean, I come to Trek to be entertained, but also uplifted concerning today's issues, and hiding from same seems off-brand.
That is against the terms and conditions of Instagram. Itis probably them I found spamming posts where photos of actors have been ruined by them adding stuff in their faces that don't belong there, as a manner of a meaningless complain concerning situations in the world, instead of posting, say a good series of screen captures from "Unnatural selection", "Miri", "Symbiosis" or any VOY episode featuring the Vidians. Reading your post I feel it safe to report those Instagram using the "helth desinformation" alternatie. Instagram would then discover if it is a bought account or not, and if it is, then it will be removed. I have seen contents from Google's services and according to a Google user, they cancel all commercial transaction of content that contains "The Q word" as it has come to be called. If that is true, Good work Google!
When a real life topic is "urgent" enough and could potential trig (mass-)panic, suicide and things like that, I think the governmental information channels work much better than some paranoid Star Trek fans speculating on Instagram, when others (most I suppose) who enjoy the exciting moments of the epic wars against the Dominion to calm down after an anxiety charged news program, (Star Trek would be a comfort zone for them), could get trigged. A "Trigger warning" on such Instagram posts is the least I would recommend. I stopped using that Instagram account now and I decided on following Star Trek posts on Tumblr instead. For some strange reason, they are not using the "Q word" and they are far more on-topic. Rarely do they even mention parallells with real life when it comes to "urgent" topics. One thing I was annoyed about though, is the "Spirk" (Star Trek themed pornography that I hated seeing from the bottom of my heart because it messes with the identity of canon characters) -posts but they don't seem to be as common now as they were in March of 2021.
