Pixelfed admins will have several configuration options for the Import from Instagram feature!

The defaults are pretty good IMO, let me know what you think

@dansup The defaults seem good to me. I've had my IG backup ready to go since I brought my #Pixelfed instance up!

@dansup permissions don't make sense... why would age or follower-count be a good discriminator? i can see the most common legitimate use-case being for brand new accounts that don't have any followers yet...

@trwnh @dansup my initial thought was Instagram minimum followers to import, but I could be wrong

@trwnh @dansup looks like sensible options for me, admins may want to prevent brand new users (potential bots) from causing such high server load.

@paul @trwnh Yeah those are to prevent bot accounts, but are disabled by default so it's really up to the admin to decide what works best for them.

The boolean state of enabled or disabled didn't seem to cut it, I figure admins will want these additional configuration options.

@dansup @paul fundamentally what we are trying to encode is trust to use media resources, but imo this is not much different than federating 1000 posts to your server from a remote server
