  It’s not too bad, but yeah, stuff does break. Instagram’s code is dogshit though, so there’s a lot of workarounds for most stuff.

  Things like this have to be constantly maintained for that reason, look also at yt-dlp. For that, I’ll give it a month, see how they’re doing then before setting up a personal interest. Worried they’ll abandon it

    I’ve been keeping up with changes for the last ~9 months.

        How is what? Keeping up with changes? It’s not too hard, it doesn’t happen too often, and I can usually get stuff fixed quick enough.

  aggressively guard

  It’s a hard balance for any social media company. Guard content too little and you end up with Cambridge Analytica and headlines talking about big data leaks (which really just end up being compilations of public data). Guard content too much and you restrict users’ freedom too much.

    Cambridge Analytical was less of a failure to guard the data, and more of an assistance helping the robbers load it up out the back door.

      All the data gathered by Cambridge Analytica was gathered through the public API though, which is why the API is very locked down now.

        I remember the event, but I also have the recollection that the user data API availability had been part of sales pitch and marketing of that access despite objections from the EFF and other privacy advocates, which contributed to the scandal once it was inevitably used for unscrupulous purposes. The distinction I’m making is one of intent, but it may be misplaced. Was that not the case?
