I'm also having this same issue, but just not with Instagram URLs - anything that is classified as "unreadable" doesn't seem to be saving. I first noticed the issue with this URL: https://obsidianttrpgtutorials.com/Obsidian+TTRPG+Tutorials/Getting+Started/Getting+Started

I'm also receiving the "@mozilla/readability considers this document to unlikely be readerable." message in Obsidian when pasting.

I also tried it with an Instagram URL and got the same result.

This isn't working for me on Mac, Windows, or iPhone. I'm also using OBsidian 1.6.7 and ReadItLater 0.5.0

The plugin uses Mozilla readability as the reading formatted. It’s one of the core packages to prepare the page. We have to take a look but if it’s a problem with the lib itself it’s hard to fix

This problem occurs mainly with websites that use Javascript to render content. Both Instagram and obsidianttrpgtutorials.com belongs to this category.

However there is a bug which prevents from saving note with URL of non-parseable site.

Thanks for the report.

Saving of non-parseable article fixed in #165 and will be included in next release.
