    So, the reason why the URL doesn’t work is that the DNS record is deleted, and the httpd is no longer configured to serve this content (so the requests fail even if you spoof the DNS, especially since they use HSTS, with which most browsers won’t let users add a certificate exception).

    This is because bibliogram is unmaintained (since end of 2022), and it is also unusable (blocked by meta) so even the instances that still have it can’t work.

    There is another software that is meant as a frontend for Instagram (proxigram) but even if it isn’t discontinued, none of the instances I could find work (they all return '403 - blocked" at best).

    The only info I could get from Instagram on this account was by using pixvox (another Instagram frontend, but this one is closed source, and seemingly rather dubious), and according to the information, the account is “on indefinite hiatus”.

    However, I could also find a post on reddit, by u/king_ink777 where they posted the following image:

    According to the image, you can reach the people behind that magazine at “exhale the ash magazine” (without the spaces) on gmail.
