Are there any working tools to rip an entire Instagram account? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I don't have an account myself, and the photos and videos I'm trying to download en masse belong to a famous person's public account. Is there anything I can use to do it (as long as it's not creating an account lol), preferably proxied tools as apparently I get blocked while behind a VPN?

Thank you!

Is it really creeping if the profile is public? Same thing as checking it daily with your Instagram account, but without the privacy issues

It is creeping. If your neighbor goes outside in public and you stare at her from your window blinds, with the lights out just so you can see her ankles twice a day. Yes, she is in public and you are only looking, but the obsession is not normal behavior.
