Is there any public instance, where I could use function “import from instagram”?

Im looking for general instance, preferably hosted in Europe

    Another platform? Isnt Pixelfed / Monnett enough? ;)

    In the end I thought that I will just set up new own Pixelfed instance, and I will import everything and fix dates if needed

      What I am building is more of a Facebook competitor than an Instagram competitor. If all you need is an Instagram like platform, then pixelfed should be fine.

                  @lovingisliving Well I have but my family aren’t massive social media users so its pretty lightweight activity. I guess my experience is that friendica has a lot of features in there - I like groups and events myself but also I found myself looking at how one account can manage another - I thin this would be great for parent/child accounts - perhaps it might need a few more controls around what the child account can/cannot do …

                  I’m actually not far from creating another friendica instance just as a ‘trial’ server for people I know who want to try it out.

                  I wish I was more capable in taking ideas for features that I would find useful and turning them into deliverable things. I’m a Business Analyst so I can define the requirements but I need some dev friends to help me out doing the delivery.

              It’s almost too many to list, but off the top of my head:

              • General “jank”, from how community search works to how events work. It’s massive technical debt that is more work to fix than it would be to just start over.
              • Lack of professional branding or vision. It looks like it is run by some random people on the Internet rather than an actual group that has a plan or vision.
              • UI is extremely outdated and unintuitive

              I also have an idea of how I think the platform should work at a fundamental level that is different from how friendica approaches things.
