Describe your issue

I recently read that instagram will start deprecating it's current API to move into a more business related one called instagram graph API. Does this affect in nay way the repository ? or is it based on the instagram.com end points?
ps: they'll start to deprecate the API in June 2018

Instabot doesn't use Instagram Graph API. Bot work only with private Instagram API. Repo will not be useless after 18 June.
