Probably not the most perfect solution but if you have an Android you can download Instander:
Don't use barinsta or bibliogram, they're dead projects as of now.
We have proxygram these days https://codeberg.org/ThePenguinDev/Proxigram/wiki/Instances
Thank you, have been using insta webapp but even with adblock I get shown suggested and sponsored so you may have fixed my main gripe, thanks
alternative to Instagram: Pixelfed https://pixelfed.org/ alternative frontend for viewing Instagram: https://codeberg.org/ThePenguinDev/Proxigram
An alternative could be pixelfed, I'm not sure if there are many third party FOSS front ends to Instagram.
Does barinista work for you? Looks like it's been abondoned :/
I used barinista and they got pretty hefty threats from insta, I will however look at pixelfed thanks
If you're looking for an alternative to Instagram or something similar to FreeTube, Instander might be the solution. Instander is a modded version of Instagram that offers more control over your experience, including the ability to browse without ads, download photos and videos, and enhance your privacy settings. It’s perfect for users who want to enjoy Instagram’s features while having more freedom, similar to how FreeTube offers a tailored, ad-free experience for YouTube.
