So I'm trying to update the profile on “my Instragram account [1]” when I see this: “Editing your links is only available on mobile. Visit the Instagram app and edit your profile to change the websites in your bio.”
Really?
I can edit my bio, and my gender, but I can't update a link? Because I'm on a desktop computer?
I figure, maybe I can hack the form to enable that field? I toggle the Web Developer Tools in Firefox and immedately see this:
.d8888b. 888 888
d88P Y88b 888 888
Y88b. 888 888 This is a browser feature intended for
"Y888b. 888888 .d88b. 88888b. 888 developers. If someone told you to copy-paste
"Y88b. 888 d88""88b 888 "88b 888 something here to enable an Instagram
"888 888 888 888 888 888 Y8P feature or "hack" someone's account,
Y88b d88P Y88b. Y88..88P 888 d88P it is a scam and will give them access
"Y8888P" "Y888 "Y88P" 88888P" 888 to your Instagram account.

Heh. But in the meantime …
… and nope. The link field has no name, and even if I remove the disabled attribute, it won't let me type in it (and as an aside, the “gender” field isn't even an HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) field element, but the word “Male” wrapped in four <DIV>s and a <SPAN>, each with fifteen classes attached to them—what the hell?). I'm so far removed from “modern web development” that I probably can't hack this without significant effort that I'm too lazy to do.
Sheesh.
