Ask HN: Relying on Instagram's API

1 pointsby drumover 10 years ago
HN,<p>I&#x27;m building a website that revolves around advertising on Instagram. It relies heavily on their API for sign up and creation of user profiles. It does not violate their Terms of Use. I&#x27;ve been building an MVP. I&#x27;m concerned that they may cut off API access of it gains traction post launch. Does anybody have experience with a similar situation and care to share how it played out? Also, is it worth trying to talk to someone at Instagram before hand?<p>PS. I think I&#x27;ve seen Mike Krieger comment on HN before, would love to hear his thoughts if anybody would be willing to forward this link to him.
