Addressing the issue that everyone is having #791

Lately, we all discovered that Osintgram is not working anymore. I'll explain on what is going on.

Osintgram itself

This project itself is not at fault here. The Instagram private API is at fault. Why? The thing is, the API calls onto a website that Instagram decided to take down. This is the line that it communicates with: API_URL = 'https://i.instagram.com/api/{version!s}/'. Removing {version!s} or replacing with "1.0" does not seem to work, even when connecting via a Browser. When doing the connection to the URL, it returns with the code 404.

Workarounds?

As of now, I don't know any other workarounds. This repository is no longer being maintained, which means that this can be sadly dumped now.

By the way, I also looked into the repository issues tab, and someone addressed the error over there too. The link to it links to this page.
