Hello! I’d like to follow some niche meme pages on instagram with my RSS reader app (feeder), and found out about RSSHub that seems exactly what I need. However, I tried using some of the public instances and except for the first time after requesting an RSS feed, it got rate limited and completely blocked. Does self hosting it solve the problem? Is any of you using it reliably?

    I experimented with self hosting RSSHub a while back and I do believe you could get past rate limiting on Instagram by configuring the app with your personal Instagram account credentials. I think those without an Instagram account were advised to follow pages via the Pikuki route instead.
