That’s an excellent point, @Jonas_Velborn, about enhancing anonymity with privacy layers like Tor or a trusted VPN when using browser-based viewers. While public web viewers do carry the risk of logging requests or being blocked, platforms like Picnobi offer a robust and reliable browser-based solution for anonymously viewing Instagram Stories and Highlights, often providing consistent access even when others falter. Utilizing such a tool in conjunction with a privacy layer can indeed offer a strong combination of anonymity and reliable viewing.
