Will lightroom allow me to publish a multi-image post ( a carousel?) directly to Instagram? I'm using the desktop version of Classic, not the cloud version.

LR has never posted to Instagram, so nothing to fix. The plugin author is the person to contact.

I've only been able to post a carousel with my phone. Once I've edited it and organized my hashtags, I airdrop it to my phone and post from there. If you have Lr mobile on your phone there is a Share option there as well and you can navigate to a Copy to Instagram option.

Yep me too. I have to email from pc to phone, then do carousel posts from the Instgram app. Too cumbersome.

Lightroom itself won't post to Instagram, but a plugin can do it - see LR/Instagram - Lightroom Publish Plugin for Instagram . I don't see any mention of carousel however.

On Mac I use an app called Flume which can create carousel posts.

Right. LR did not support carousel posts. I was hoping the latest rev might have fixed that. Flume sounds good, but I'm a pc user.
