How to force Instagram to open links in the browser and not the app?
Case: a person clicks on the link in the profile header, he opens the built-in Instagram browser, which displays the content. Then he proceeds to pay for the goods, fills out the form, gets to the site of the payment system, and this is where the catch often lies. The client enters the card details, the bank's gateway page loads, where he needs to enter the code from the SMS. SMS arrives, the client exits the app (or clicks on the SMS notification) to copy or read the code, and at this time, Instagram can either close its browser or go into hibernation and open as if anew. The client is lost.
So, is it possible to somehow build a link on your site, or make a script that would force Instagram to open the link in the phone’s native browser, and not in its built-in one? The most obvious option with target="_blank" doesn't work, is there anything else I can do?

Don't do it at all. You can turn it off in Instagram settings. Or when opening the page, ask to be opened in the browser (a button like at the top right). Arrow to draw and all that.
You can also write an application to register the interception of links by the URL of your site
