I had this same problem so I made an app that allows me to use Instagram without using the Instagram app. It also blocks ads + suggest posts, removes all tracking, removes read receipts in DMs and when viewing stories, and also allows me to create custom feeds like Twitter lists.

Turns out a lot of people had this problem, so I made it into a company.

I don't want to blatantly advertise but let me know if you'd like me to link the website.
