I made me a later account, loded a photo up, timed it for this evening and … nothing happened. Time is over, the picture is still o the calendar and not on instagram.
Where do I fuck up?
You need the Later app on your phone for it to work. You’ll receive a push notification at the appropriate time or you can manually submit it whenever you want from within the app. (bypassing the schedule)
If you want Later to handle everything automatically I believe you need a business account on Instagram and a paid plan on Later. At least the latter.
instagram desktop for firefox appears to work. the pics, however, are still tiny
OK, I got that far. Now the problem is that I can add the picture, but all text (caption and hash-tags) are lost.
Nothing is ever going to be easy …
I think we’re almost there… 
The last thing you need to keep in mind is that the Later app copies the text related to your post to the clipboard. So once it redirects you to the Instagram app you can simply paste it in the text box.
Hope it works now!
I’ m not an instagram’s user but sometime ago I used this trick for Opera browser. Its a two years old video and I don’t know if works at this moment.

Sorry for my english 
I tried several extensions for Firefox and Chrome. They work, but I get very few likes (much fewer than if I upload from a mobile device). I don’t know why, I have 30 hashtags.
I got it working.
Thanks a lot y’all

There was also an unofficial plugin for PhotoTeleport, once upon a time. Now I lost contact with the author, and I’m not sure where the code is.
Just a small note, but this is not hard to pull off in FF using Developer Tools:
Basically, just use Dev Tools to emulate a mobile device, and all of the functionality will become available to you (just like the mobile version, of course ).

Well if I use one of those Firefox or Chrome extensions I think my photos will only get liked by autolikers.
Oh neat, I just realized you can do this directly from the firefox menu without having to open Dev Tools:
It’s on the FF menu under “Web Developer”:
Or apparently the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+M.

nope - got feedback from real persons
I haven’t looked specifically at tagging (beyond putting hash-tagged items in the posted text), but I use Ramme on my Linux Mint 19.1 Tara Cinnamon.

apparently Ramme is buggy (“Segmentation fault”), the binary from the deb-package does not start on Debian 10.
Ah, I see. Sorry to hear that. It’s less than perfect on Mint too. I get a javascript error on startup / quit: “… app.css not found in /opt/Ramme/resources/app.asar” and “Uncaught Exception: Object has been destroyed at Timeout.intervalFunc …”
Despite that, it works for me in between.
Does this work flawlessly? I tried a few tricks like this in the past but it never seemed to work that good.
I’ll definitely going to try this out myself, but i wonder what other peoples experiences are with this.
The firefox add-on “instagram desktop” works flawlessly. And it’s even better when you use shift-ctrl-m in order to make it look “the right size”
I tried it I think. I think the hashtags are ignored if you upload a photo with it. I get very few likes. Anyway I get more likes if I upload with the android app.
I’ve been using the Bluestacks android emulator that runs under Windows. Unfortunately they do not have a Linux version. I haven’t tried it but I think that you are supposed to be able to run Android-x86 from within Virtualbox. Info on the Android-x86 option is here: https://www.android-x86.org/
Unfortunately Android-x86 is not listed in the table of OSes that tells how well that OS works with VirtualBox: see https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Guest_OSes
