Help with the Osintgram
I suspect there are two major issues that could be into play SSL Certificate: This Osint Application uses a private Instagram API which usually works fine but, as it's an unofficial api (since Instagram stripped it's development api to the open users)the website which your computer is trying to access, it's ssl/root certificate is either isn't valid, doesn't exist or the signatures in the library in Python is out of dated which could pull to issue number 2

Hey. I want to scrape Instagram for some hashtag information. But I don't wanna get blocked or something. How to do it legally?
Not sure of the legality but I did find this open source project on github that might be worth looking into: https://github.com/ping/instagram_private_api

Program to display new posts on an Instagram page
Or you can try with this: Instagram Private API This emulates the official app and has a larger set of functions and less limitations (it can do what you've asked). Don't know if it's up to date anymore, but it should server as a good starting point regardless.

How To download Saves from instagram?
There was a FOSS program that worked. The problem is, if they detect anything remotely like scraping, they'll ban your account. I don't know what a good "pause" amount of time to set in the program would be to get around their flags. I think this was the one I used before (and got my account banned.) https://github.com/arc298/instagram-scraper And then if you don't login, they make you wait a really long time between downloads and you can't access some information (like your saves.)
