This was a failed attempt to locate archived copies of Ayo Scott's terminated Instagram account in the Internet Archive. I noticed that he had his Instgram set up to auto-tweet new posts. So I searched for these posts using twarc2, converted the output to CSV, and wrote a little program to look up those Instagram URLs in the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.

$ pip3 install requirements.txt
$ twarc2 search --archive 'from:noyodesigns instagram.com' ayo.jsonl
$ twarc2 csv ayo.jsonl ayo.csv
$ python3 urls.py

Sadly, not one of the 1,542 Instagram URLs were archived. However it's nice to see that there have been snapshots of his personal website. I haven't done much in terms of seeing how complete these captures are but the [waybackprov] tool can be used to see which collections have added the homepage for his site:

$ waybackprov.py https://ayoscott.com/ --start 2010 --end 2022 --collapse
