I've never had an instagram account, and I can still watch videos and such that others post.

Same. But if I blocked all meta sites, I wouldn't. That's why I stick it in a Firefox multi-account container, so meta can't associate that with anything else I do online (i.e. tracking pixels on other sites). Still don't have an account, I just use it to isolate their cookies and whatnot.
