Proposed changes
Instagram has deprecated most of the endpoints on api.instagram and moved all data access to graph.instagram.
Short story: Instagram Basic Display is no longer an authentication solution.
Long story: Instagram Basic Display only works on accounts that are not creator or business accounts and the endpoint will not return data (email, etc) that can be used to authenticate users. However, for creator and business accounts, the facebook backend is the authentication solution. I propose that we keep the Instagram backend for users who want to associate Instagram personal (non-creator and non-business) accounts with authenticated users. It is important to note that Facebook does not verify apps (social_core library users) that use this as an authentication method.
