It seems that around July 15th, the repo for Barinsta, the FOSS instagram frontend that was abandoned about 1-2 years ago has been taken down.

The repo was hosted on codeberg, after the original author took the github repo down. The second maintainer moved the repo to codeberg, but it seems little was done to maintain it. The second maintainer seems to have deleted previous blog posts about barinsta as well.

I have the repo backed up locally (hence why I noticed), but it does not work in its current state.

Its probably not worth using instagram anyways

Rules:

spoiler0. Use common sense.

  1. No distribution of APKs from unknown sources or direct downloads. You are only allowed to share from GitHub (no direct links, repo only), Play Store, F-Droid, or Aurora Store.
  2. No piracy. This includes hacking, cracking in-app purchases or bypassing forms of DRM. YouTube (Music) Vanced are allowed exceptions to this.
  3. No rooting apps allowed. This also includes hacking software or tools.
  4. No apps that require root to function. This also includes Magisk and Magisk-related software. However: If the app features extra functionality that is available if you are rooted, but it is not required to use the app it is then okay. I.e. YouTube Vanced does not require root, but it features stuff that works only with root.
  5. No software that requires ADB or patching system files. Exceptions are well-known debloaters such as UAD and other manually approved stuff. Otherwise, ADB is not a user-friendly or safe tool and discourage its usage here.

These rules are subject to change at any point in time with or without user notice.
