Define a metadata post processor in your config file, similar to this but remove filter and let it write {description} instead of {content}...

Or you use --write-metadata, but that writes all metadata for every file.

Comments are not supported yet, but they would require one extra API request per post and that is not really doable with IG's current rate-limit. Maybe for single post URLs.

Outta curiosity: what kinda wait times are we talking about ?

mikf commented 1 year ago

I do not know, but I've heard that users got banned even with the default wait times of 6-12 seconds between requests.

I would also be interested in the comment support, are there any updates on it?

Bumping this to signal interest in Instagram comment support too (although, it sounds like a feature request different from the original one)
