So I just went to archive.ph and archive.org to archive this url page : https://www.instagram.com/p/Chon-8JjeP6/

Because zeleski had uploaded another cute looking nazi logo wearing soldiers pic.

But no archive site could archive it at all and all the moreover when I refreshed the Instagram post page after trying to archive it, the nazi related picture was deleted?!?! Whaaaat?? It was up there for more than 24hrs unnoticed but suddenly when I tried to archive it failed and the photo got deleted??? (You can check it out yourself by visiting the url)

Edit: I understand why the site archivers may not work because of how a site like Instagram is designed. But the main point here is how the picture got deleted just after I’ve tried to archive them.

    It could not have been programmed that way. It’s just impossible due to the sheer scale of sites like instagram. It takes time to propagate changes. For example, if you were to delete your own post from Instagram, you’d see it deleted because it was deleted on the server you’re connected to, but your friend on another continent might continue to see that deleted photo anywhere from minutes to hours after you deleted it.
