Download last Instagram posts? (alien.top)

I'm not a big user of Instagram, mostly using it for family and friends, and I hate the way it displays content from people I'm not following.

Do you know if there are any solutions to download the last posts from people we follow? Or turning them into good old time RSS?

I've seen some posts about Instagram clone but nothing on how to feed them with content from Instagram itself.

Or turning them into good old time RSS?

Two options that I'm aware:

Proxigram (it tries to embed images, doesn't always work): https://codeberg.org/ThePenguinDev/Proxigram/wiki/Instances
- Example: https://proxigram.drgns.space/gudim_public/rss
Open RSS (does not embed images): https://openrss.org/
- Example: https://openrss.org/www.instagram.com/gudim_public

There is a instagram to pixelfed crossposting bot. Didn't look into the details though who needs to create the API key on IG...
