Instagram pages have a generic <title> ("Instagram") but put the full
post description in the og:title meta tag. Add a dedicated
_process_url_instagram handler that detects instagram.com URLs and
extracts og:title instead of falling through to the default <title>
extraction.
Add a fixture HTML file and unit test that verify the og:title is used
and the result includes the actual post content.

Rather than a dedicated Instagram processor, simply update _extract_title_from_content to check og:title first and fall back to <title>. This fixes Instagram (and any other site where the <title> is generic) in one place. Remove the now-redundant _process_url_instagram method. Update the old test_too_long_title_text test to assert og:title preference and add a separate test_too_long_title_truncated for the truncation logic. https://claude.ai/code/session_01HpfD4oaZHyZS9gePtLqsHC
…ntent Select the title string first (og:title then <title>), then apply the truncation and curly-quote wrapping once instead of repeating it in both branches. https://claude.ai/code/session_01HpfD4oaZHyZS9gePtLqsHC
Replace the hand-crafted instagram-reel-example.html and its mock-based test with a Betamax cassette recorded against the live Instagram URL. Set Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate in the session to avoid zstd, which Betamax cannot round-trip through JSON (urllib3 advertises zstd but the cassette serialiser corrupts the binary frame, causing ZstdError on playback).

Use split()/join() instead of strip() to collapse all whitespace (including embedded newlines) in extracted titles. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
