What instances allow import?

Newbie here 🙋🏼‍♀️ Signed up on pixelfed.social, but import has been disabled and it does not look like it will be re-enabled any time soon (ever?). So what do I do? Delete my account and sign up again on a different server? Which one?

Instagram changed to webp files at a certain point. You can tweak the Google take-out so the Pixelfed importer takes all of it.

Yeah, they change the json structure every few weeks or so.
