Most posts not recognized anymore unless navigating on profile #32

First of all, the timeline and stories still seem to work fine.

However, when you open an instagram post in a new tab or from a link or something like that, almost universally Instantgram can't recognize it. If you click into a post from a profile, it usually works. Reels seem to fail to process at all.

Here's an example post. Works on the timeline, works when browsing a profile, doesn't work otherwise.

This reel works. This reel never even gives an error.

Firefox 112.0.2, Windows 10, USA west coast.

Thank you for reporting the issue. I have developed a completely new bookmarklet, and I am currently preparing for its release.

With the new bookmarklet no more problems will arise unless instagram changes something fundamental in the backend

So far, it has always been a cat-and-mouse game which was really annoying, and that has now prompted me to pull the plug and start completely from scratch with a new approach.
