Research direction

Start by comparing the related YouTube issue #87 and Instagram issue #309, then inspect how ClearURLs represents URL parameters for the example Instagram Reel. Confirm the igsi parameter is removable without breaking the remaining URL, and verify the rule against the provided example and a URL without that parameter.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

This potentially similar to YouTube si (#87) parameter that can be trackback to source who were shared, I've tested visiting url without it and it can be open properly.

Example of link: https://www.instagram.com/reel/Db8u4REpzUb/?igsi=azBrY2s1NDd0ZjJw

Edit: sorry, didn't see #309 earlier that it also use igsh
