Is it really so hard to just say "Gah, sorry, I don't have an IG account"?

Yup I have a friend that sends link to shorts(?) videos on ig and I usually open them in a private tab and accept only necessary cookies. The annoying part is that I only get to watch it once, if I miss something and want to watch it again I need to create an account... Nope! And it's usually just rehashed tiktok videos so I go there and search for it instead.

I make burner accounts on these platforms for this use case. No profile image, random character usernames. works fine.

Like the archive.ph bypass for soft paywalls on news articles ...

Isn't there a website that simple records a GIF of the said tiktok/ IG reel and lets you share that instead?

Don't know about Tiktok, but this site seems to work for IG to some degree:

https://www.picuki.com/

Don't know exactly how much it captures, but you can toss the page it gives you into archive.ph at least.
