Reply To: Is it actually worth buying Instagram engagement?

Without knowing your account at all, it sounds like a content issue first and foremost. 

Are you posting reels or just static pictures?

I think it is hard these days to grow organically on image focused accounts when there is considerably more discoverability on reels.

Yes, having less followers makes other people less likely to follow you, but growth largely will come from people stumbling on your content and following you directly from the post and never even visiting your profile.

Worry less about the optics and more about the content.
