I heard that it can be blocked using ublock origin and then I can scroll infinitely without needing to login ? Can someone confirm and share the steps.

Edit: People trying to find a solution. Unfortunately it can't be done. You have to login using an email.

I doubt it - This covers your screen if you try to view someone else’s instagram post when not logged into an account. I expect OP just wants to see the post without giving meta their data.

I thought the same thing. Seriously? Posting to Privacy asking how to get on to instagram…

[–] Zak@lemmy.world 93 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Asking how to view content from corporate social media without giving it more information than an IP address and user agent string does seem on-brand for /c/privacy to me.

[–] iqwertyasdf@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Yeah that’s fair. They will have that data anyway, saves him giving it willingly

[–] DarkThoughts@kbin.social 9 points 1 year ago

While showing what he was trying to look at.

Can you please NSFW-tag this

[–] Xepher@lemm.ee 73 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'll say this for OP, the man knows what he likes

[–] JonEFive@midwest.social 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So does the algorithm apparently

[–] 10EXP@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 year ago

Tbf they’re looking at a specific person’s account (look at the link)

[–] FIST_FILLET@lemmy.ml 58 points 1 year ago (3 children)

[–] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 30 points 1 year ago

Ain't nothing wrong with supporting your wifes side hustle 😤🙏

[–] yoz@aussie.zone 17 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That's a kink you won't understand.

Homie's asking the real questions

Little bit sus.

Go to the ublock origin extension in firefox and click open dashboard. Then unter filter lists make sure to select everything under annoyances. I haven't tested it but it should work

Edit: Also click the confirm and update icons at the top

[–] Anamana@feddit.de 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Damn why did I not know of this before

[–] yoz@aussie.zone 5 points 1 year ago (12 children)
[–] Anamana@feddit.de 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Does work for me. But it works better on the phone somehow.

Edit: Also works for me after disabling the filters again. Don't ask me why. It usually doesn't work for me, but guess today is my lucky day.

You block it by switching to #pixelfed.

[–] yoz@aussie.zone 85 points 1 year ago (2 children)

But who'll ask kendra to switch?

Dude c'mon you can do better than Instagram for this or for anything for that matter

[–] spez@sh.itjust.works 22 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Very privacy minded I see.

[–] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago

Privates minded, maybe

[–] sharkfucker420@sh.itjust.works 16 points 1 year ago

Down horrendous

There was a project that did this but has since been abandoned by its developers.

It’s one of those privacy respecting front ends like piped or invidious for YouTube, libre Reddit reader or whatever, or Nitter for Twitter for example.

[–] Blizzard@lemmy.zip 10 points 1 year ago

Are you referring to imginn? I just noticed the site is mot there anymore.

[–] 10EXP@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago

Make a proton email account or something similar and use it as a burner

[–] tty84@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

sometimes it's possible to view Instagram's profiles from picuki.com without logged in (but beware, it's full of trackers)

Edit: since bibliogram.art is dead I've tried imginn.org and gramhir.com with varying degrees of success in the past, today neither seems to work.

[–] alwaysconfused@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I've been using iganony.io and it does the job for me. For some reason it always shows a couple old posts before the latest posts. Picuki.com stopped working for me at some point and I assume it was a Firefox extension that was causing issues. I was too lazy to do any troubleshooting to fix it.

I only ever use it to see my tattoo artist's work and grab the progress videos of my sleeve she is currently working on. My experience with Instagram and viewers are super limited so I can't really say if iganony.io is good or not.

[–] tty84@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 year ago

Nice find, I didn't know that one. Thank you :)

[–] electromage@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you insist on using Instagram just log in with a burner account. What difference does it make?

[–] hitmyspot@aussie.zone 5 points 1 year ago

Logging in makes it easier for them to track you across devices and apps. Do you mean a burner for each time you access it from a link?

[–] IWantToFuckSpez@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

I see you are a man of culture. An erudite some would say. Are you perhaps well read in the works of the other Kendras? Like Sunderland, Spade or even James?
