Hi, I’ve been using Instander for some time, but even the early beta is outdated by now, and doesn’t work correctly. Does anyone have any recommendations on good Instagram mods? I know about AeroInsta, Honista, MyInsta and few others, but not sure which are safe.

PS: please tell me if this isn’t the right community for this question, I’m not sure but it seems like the best one PPS: I know precisely how bad instagram is, and I still want/need to use it, so please don’t waste your time telling me that.

Aeroinsta I couldn’t get installed, their website forces me to turn off my adblocker but I think it picked up Firefox’s tracker blocking

Honista I couldn’t log in, it forced me to turn off my VPN ad blocking (DuckDuckGo blocking trackers)

I wouldn’t trust either with the ad-free experience

MyInsta is simply just the Instagram site on mobile. I do get Instagram’s first party ads, still

MyInsta is not just the website. It’s a mod just like the others. https://myinsta.app The developer claims to not obfuscate his additional code, which seems nice, but I didn’t check that.

I never checked the website’s functionality, but the app just serves me something that looks 1:1 like Insta’s mobile site, plus Instagram’s first party ads. I got the impression it was just an Electron browser with adblock pre-installed

That’s really weird. I included the link just in case we were talking about different mods both named MyInsta. For me, MyInsta is a normal mod of Instgram’s android app, very similar to Instander or Aeroinsta (and probably others, I haven’t tried them)

If memory serves me well, Barinsta used to be good, now I can’t get it to log in, anymore
