Is it still possible to migrate from Instagram to Pixelfed? (slrpnk.net)

I am asking because it was possible to import your instagram archive to pixelfed but recently read that it is not possible anymore.

Is it an instance issue? If so, which instance would you recommend that has this feature enabled?

The feature still exists, but I tried last month and it didn't actually work, so there may be a bug?

As I understand it, not all instances have this feature enabled and some of them have limitations about how many posts you can import, but it's been a few months since I did my import.

To which instance did you migrate?

I migrated to Pixey, but it looks like they now have restrictions on Instagram imports, so you'd want to contact the admin
