How accurate is the belief that logged-in eyeballs are profitable, but logged-out ones aren't?
This has been causing me a fair bit of inconvenience at work as I quit Instagram last year (decided it was toxic) but still need to research people/trends in my design job. Guess I'll have to create a fake profile, which in a way will have the opposite of their intended "join the community" action point.
They also use meta robots=noimageindex,noarchive on every page without an opt-out which is so incredibly stupid and walled-gardeny for an image sharing site. I wanted to use Flickr instead but nobody else uses Flickr, then I tried making my own image gallery and I learned that browsers do not honor the JPEG rotation EXIF data and I don't want to write my own rotation/cropping code (that and Google completely ignores…
Have you investigated paid options? Otherwise, it's kind of silly that people expect free image hosting years after everyone has started monetizing.

Now that Instagram has been totally Facebooked, I feel there’s a real gap in the market for what Instagram used to be. Just want something simple where I can upload some photos, do a bit of light editing, apply a nice filter and share with friends. And also see a chronological timeline of stuff they’ve posted. No likes, no engagement metrics, no personalisation, no skinner-boxing, no influencers. Well aware this make…

But they make it really hard to even see that they have photo / Instagram-esque features, and it seems mostly connected with their iOS app Sunlit:
I used to be a member but found the service very hipster & Apple / iOS centric. But it might be what some people here are looking for.

So VSCO?
As much as I find this revolting, I just tried with a page in a browser I'm not logged in to anything fb and it still worked. So maybe it's still being rolled out or limited to some profiles?
This is a new change? It's been like that for me ever since I knew of Instagram. You browse two or three images and plop you get a sign up screen.
I don't know if theres been any recent change, but not too long ago, login is only required to view Instagram stories. Then they changed it to block location-tagged postings too. Which is a bummer, since I liked to use the webbrowser to browse location-tagged Instagram posts to discover places to eat at. I haven't used it much since, not sure if they added additional restrictions for non-signed-up users recently.
