Two weeks ago I posted about Proxigram, a new way to use Instagram while retaining your privacy https://lemmy.world/post/925726 one of the features listed to be added in the future was RSS feeds and now, it’s available!
I know most of us use RSS feeds to get updates from different sources to get the content we actually care and to have more control over what you see. This is why adding RSS feed to Proxigram was something important.
When using Proxigram to get the feed of an account you will be able to see the content inside the post and not just the cover of the post.
To get the feed of a profile, just add /rss at the end:
/{username}/rss
This feed is for posts only at the moment, one of the features that are planned to be added to Proxigram are stories, when stories are ready to use, it will have a RSS feed too!
Something like:
/{username}/stories/rss/{username}/rss?stories=1
That being said, at the moment there is not a public instance of the project, so you will only able to use it by self-hosting the project by manual installation, I know, but this will change since adding docker is in the priority list.
You can help the project if you are interested by hosting a public instance, sharing the project or helping in the development to add new features and/or fixing bugs. That will be really helpful and appreciated.

Thanks for the work.
Is there any RSS Feed to keep up with Proxigram (to know if and when public IG RSS feeds are added)?
I just created a wiki page with the available instances, pretty simple at the moment. Thanks to @privacyfrontends@lemm.ee for setting up the first instance!
Awesome! Thank you very much for the heads up.
It seems to be working perfectly, even with videos. This is great!
