MY NOTES / TLDR's:
1/ "Bibliogram can still be used to view individual posts," and can be forked.
2/ Need to support people like this - our own better advertising or partnerships with small and little things (not just money but other rewarding things
3/ Can imagine it getting boring - we can't always go it alone or separate. Uniting as one of the aims else it's isolated as project!
3/ It's natural to end things "let go or be dragged" and let others fork it.
4/ Thanks for the time spent! Do get in touch whatever stage you're at (reader included)...

===================

"Hi everyone, I'm discontinuing Bibliogram. I'm doing this because I just don't want to work on it anymore. It's very depressing because I'm working against a hostile system and a hostile company, and not very rewarding since I do not personally care about anyone/anything on Instagram.

It's a chore that Instagram is continuously and actively trying to stop me from doing. I have been thinking about this for a couple of weeks. There will maybe be one more commit for personal use and one more commit that public instances can use to display a discontinued message and remove user lookup functionality. Bibliogram can still be used to view individual posts, which is pretty cool, so having it as just a post viewer will be its future - until that breaks too.

Bibliogram is still really good code to work on if anybody wants to try to fix collecting the data from Instagram. You can write a new function (or edit an existing one) in collectors.js to make an upstream request, and then you can parse the response using whatever you want, and return a User structure. You're welcome to maintain a fork if you fix this, but if you plan to upload your fork to GitHub, *please* also edit the readme. (While you're at it, I'd suggest a name change to reduce the risks of legal action - Bibliograph is a name that's been floating in my head for a while that you can use if you'd like.)I have not received any legal demands and there are no legal restrictions on Bibliogram or its code besides the AGPL.."

Much love goes out to everyone.
I feel like we need to talk more than program as we almost have enough things or things to develop could be more of the human kind (users are the weakness and all that on my profile)... Kudos
