Show HN: I built an Instagram clone so accurate it got removed from Netlify
I built this 2 years ago and realized it was removed from Netlify due to build image changes they made last year. I never bothered to re-deploy but wanted to do it last week and then I got a mail saying 'Your site is taken down by a DMCA request' I was shocked as I hosted this before with no issues and there were only the Instagram logo without any login page or anything on the clone.

- eggsy 2y agoyep, I guess that was the reason of the removal so I removed the Instagram logo and got another deploy. will see if it gets taken down again.
