There are no desktop apps for Instagram. Instagram forbids posting photos in any way other than their mobile app. For me this is a big problem.

It's not a problem to the majority use case of using Instagram. Desktop use is declining.
a lot of photographers (amateurs and pro) use instagram, they generally shoot on DSLR and then have to transfer to their laptops and then to their phone in order to upload to Instagram. I know this is not the majority of the users but its still a significant number. There are hacky apps showing up on both Windows and OSX that will do the trick but they are hacky nevertheless.
