1. Follow accounts with/out account. Assume I have a list of account URLs in bookmark folder How to convert it to RSS and have bookmarks and RSS in Sync.

  2. Accounts can change username, need to use the API to convert usernames to some id and back to usernames.

  3. Suggest similar accounts.

  4. Discover page.

    You’ve got to know what you want with Instagram and don’t fall for the algorithm.

    I use a throwaway account and only follow stand-up comedians so I can scroll through and watch some comedy.

    As soon as a video pops up in the feed that isn’t stand up I shut it down.

      I, too, follow a lot of comedians on IG, but I’m noticing a problem lately: there are soooooo many recommendations that I hardly see the ones I follow intentionally. Like I get that the business model is addiction+distraction, but it seems like it’s undercutting its own business.
