Ways to upload pictures to Instagram from a desktop web browser

Most browsers have a way of letting you transform the "Customer Agent"-- things that tells a site what type of device you get on. So, even when you get on a laptop computer or desktop computer, you could trick a site like Instagram right into revealing you the mobile website. That's just what we're going to do.

Safari

On Safari, it's easy. Go to Safari > Preferences > Advanced. Check the box at the extremely bottom that claims, "Show Develop menu in menu bar"

Now open a private surfing window. Go to Develop > User Agent > Safari - iOS 10 - iPhone. Go to Instagram.com, sign in and click the camera button below the screen to post a picture from your desktop computer.

Chrome

In Chrome, go to Instagram.com and sign in. Currently right-click the page > Inspect > click the Tablet icon (top-left). The web page needs to change to mobile view, where you'll locate a camera switch below the screen, which lets you post a picture from your desktop computer.

Lots of Instagrammers-- myself included-- fire photos on a dSLR cam and modify them on their computer before uploading to Instagram. That suggests having to transfer the completed image to a phone (using AirDrop or email), which is difficult, at best.

This workaround cuts that march, making dSLR uploads less complicated than ever.
