For anyone interested, here are a couple Instagram accounts I am following posting from inside Shanghai. Scary stuff. Potentially NSFW (sometimes they post videos of some nasty stuff happening) https://instagram.com/kaypapaii https://instagram.com/kaypapaii https://instagram.com/ciaransingleton https://instagram.com/ciaransingleton

Are they live videos because I don’t see anything on either account…

  Check out their "Stories"

    Ya, clearly I didn't realize people don't know how to use Instagram lol. For those confused make sure you view their stories (you tap on their profile picture)

There is nothing topic related to see. I consider this spam.

  What do you mean nothing topic related to see? It's literal first hand videos from Shanghai, and the topic of this post is "An Account of the Shanghai Lockdown". What would make it more on topic? View their stories. These people post videos everyday from inside Shanghai, since this is a post about accounts of Shanghais handling of Covid, I figured there may be others interested in seeing these.

    I click the links and see nothing topic related. I don't have an instagram account.

      Ok, maybe don't click Instagram links if you don't use Instagram and then complain because the links don't work? lol Millions of people do (and I assume many HNers do) and given this post, may be interested in seeing some videos from people first hand in Shanghai. There are many other comments in here with awesome info that you can easily scroll past this one that's irrelevant to you and consume info in a way that works for you. I'm offering another type of data that may work and be of interest to others. To call it "spam" because you can't view it is very concerning.

        I wasn't aware that I have to actively use Instagram to click on Instagram links. Also I didn't complain. I stated something. I also stated explicitly that this is my consideration. > and I assume many HNers do I actually assume that most HNers do not.

        I agree, it's dumb you have to have an Instagram account to use Instagram. Sadly it's been like that for years now. Fair enough, I don't think we need to clog this up anymore. If people use Insta and are curious to see these videos they can, but if not they can move on.

So I’m signed into Instagram in my browser and I don’t see any Stories link for these. Is it the case that not only do you have to have an Instagram account, but also have to use their mobile app? Instagram kinda sucks lol.
