How to upload images to Instagram from a desktop computer web browser
A lot of web browsers have a means of letting you change the "Customer Agent"-- the thing that tells an internet site what sort of device you're on. So, even when you're on a laptop or desktop, you can fool a website like Instagram into showing you the mobile website. That's what we're mosting likely to do.
Safari
On Safari, it's very easy. Go to Safari > Preferences > Advanced. Check package at the very lower that says, "Show Develop menu in menu bar"
Currently open a private searching window. Go to Develop > User Agent > Safari - iOS 10 - iPhone. Most likely to Instagram.com, sign in and click the camera button below the display to upload a picture from your desktop.
Chrome
In Chrome, most likely to Instagram.com as well as log in. Currently right-click the page > Inspect > click the Tablet icon (top-left). The web page needs to switch over to mobile view, where you'll discover a camera switch below the screen, which lets you post a photo from your desktop computer.
Many Instagrammers-- myself included-- fire pictures on a dSLR camera and modify them on their computer before posting to Instagram. That means needing to move the finished photo to a phone (using AirDrop or e-mail), which is difficult, at best.
This workaround reduces that march, making dSLR uploads less complicated than ever.
