As far as I know, Instagram changed its protocols and now no one can publish from Lightroom Classic.

 

I just published to Flickr using the Jeffrey Friedl plug-in.

Based on the provided information, I am just guessing.  When Flickr and Instagram change their protocols, they seem to do it without getting Adobe or plug-in developers involved.  Flickr and Instagram, especially Instagram, seem to want to be phone apps.   Consider using the connectivity of Lightroom and Lightroom Classic through synced collections.  Anything you do in Classic will be reflected on your phone for an Instagram post.
