Instagram redirect about browser_extension

[silverwings15]

I finally decided to enable Instagram redirect, but apparently it only works for the Instagram homepage and not on posts/account pages, where nothing happens. Is it working as intended? (ver. 1.3.2)

awesome thank you!

Doesn't it use the same api?

[silverwings15]

Yes it also uses the same Instagram public API, but for some reason it isn't rate limited and you can view older posts past the first page of results. out of the 4 bibliogram instances listed on https://farside.link/, only one (https://bibliogram.1d4.us/) is not rate-limited. The rest return the following error

502

I think I read that before. That's unfortunate. Wouldn't the same thing happen to https://imginn.com/ though?

it's definitely a strong possibility, but right now it works well so i'm just enjoying it. the main value add for me is the inclusion of a download button, makes grabbing media off the site a lot more straightforward. anyway it's just a friendly suggestion, decision is totally up to you. thanks for your time!

I think bibliogram can become functional if more instances are added that are from people's homes as the blog said. That way blocking of the ip's from that region will be unlogical as there's other people living there.
I might add my home server instance: https://manerakai.asuscomm.com:450/

Was a small typo.
