just downloaded all my instagram data, and once i stare at it for long enough, i'm going to write myself a script to turn it into a big static archive on my own site, and then i can purge my instagram account.

(i'll share the script if it's not too cumbersome for a not-me person to use it!)

(i'm aware there's probably some instagram import script in the world already, but it's important for me to write one for myself!)

okay i *really* should be working one one of my six deadlines that are looming but instead i slammed out some python to scrape my instagram data that i liberated, and here is a draft:

https://modgethanc.com/instagram/

on my todo list:
* figure out infinite scrolling or pagination (probably pagination tbh)
* add a function for image descriptions and slowly work backwards through the archive
* probably some sort of cw/image hiding function?
* permalinks
* eventually, be able to just post to this stream maybe?? i dunno if i want this to be just an instagram archive or a live page. but i miss having a pure image-only live feed to post to.

@modgethanc That looks like a good project!

If you're looking for another place to post only photos would @pixelfed fit the bill?
