I often get “For you” on the front app page instead of the accounts I’m following. This sometimes shows suggested pages.

You can switch to "Following" on front page and not get any algo recs but I don't think selection sticks.
Algo recs and reels nearly killed IG for me. It desperately tries to become TikTok but that's not why I signed up for IG (which was photos). Photos still exist, but even if you like every photo and "dislike" every reel for months it will still push 99% reel content in your feed--whatever ML they use has been near totally useless.
