A photo of me wearing a blue blazer and pocket square while on a horse, looking quite dapper.

@davidcelis that's really weird, I definitely got my photos when I did this

@anizocani maybe it’s because i requested a JSON archive instead of HTML? i assumed both would include the photos themselves, but i requested an HTML archive as soon as i noticed the JSON archive was less than one MB in size

@davidcelis I wish there was a good Instagram alternative. As someone that used the platform since 2010, it pains me to see how much Facebook ruined such a good platform.

@anizocani aaaaand yep, the HTML archive had them. really wish they'd made it obvious when selecting a format
