Hey, its not me. I posted it as a gesture of support to the developer. The app actually used to fetch content just as the instagram on the website does and also gave very less user data in that process, only limited to a fetch request. While there are a lot of instagram mods out there who are a real threat, facebook only has problems with projects who care about privacy on their platforms. Also, the app hwas built from scratch up and had many anti-addiction features. The app's still up and you're free to try it.

My bad. Anyway, as a developer I think to ban anyone from using my services just because I dont like how my services are used is a stupid idea.

But Facebook is not really a developer, get what I mean?

Yeah I agree. Bad choice of words on my side.
