## Manual edits / notes

* `ads_information/ads_and_topics`
  * Both `posts_viewer.json` and `videos_watcher.json` have this weird array list to get the information for a single entry. "label values" They all combine to basically make one entry
  * The URL in the "dict"/owner it's tied to is the external URL of that profile (like to a link tree or external website, blank if none was set)
  * they were 3 long so I had to manually add some info back because scrub only keeps 2...
* `personal_information/personal_information`
  * Some of the values store key-type information. You'd have to re-enter all those because scrub removes them
  * A lot of `timestamp: 0` which seem to indicate no timestamp, but scrub overwrite these to `timestamp: 1`
* `your_instagram_activity/messages`
  * Have to prune all the folders per-user to get to one, also updating the images to do placeholders
  * There's both a "photos" and a "videos"
