Direct image link for the no-js crowd?
- filoleg 7y agoI haven't looked into how instagram hosts the images (had to look in source of the page to find the link, as it doesn't allow to just direct link to it normally), so please let me know in the comments if the link expired/not working anymore. As of now, it works, and I checked that it works in a private chrome tab as well, no login needed. https://scontent-sea1-1.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.2885-15/e35/38713552_1053267414827345_5266901198035746816_n.jpg?_nc_ht=scontent-sea1-1.cdninstagram.com&_nc_cat=105&_nc_ohc=lay0jd5jGZIAX-L4HLa&oh=c70e1af46c025d88b5d1a6ece2792ef6&oe=5E7CA872 https://scontent-sea1-1.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.2885-15/e35/3... P.S. Interestingly enough, if you remove the query string from that URL, the link refuses to work and displays a "bad timestamp" error. Which is what made me guess they employ some expiring timestamp hash in query strings for image URLs.
