I've been having some trouble with receiving webmentions from Instagram lately.

Here's my profile on Bridgy: https://brid.gy/instagram/jgarber. Note the abundance of "No webmention targets."

My homepage has a properly marked up h-feed ("Recent Photos" down the page) which links to my permalinks (e.g. https://sixtwothree.org/photos/38) which has a u-syndication link to the Instagram version of the photo.

What I've noticed is that my u-syndication link is precisely https://instagram.com/p/BDJ-gx4txv3/ (copied directly from the Instagram iOS app's "share" menu) and the final resolved URL is https://www.instagram.com/p/BDJ-gx4txv3/ (when loaded in my web browser). Note the lack of www. in my u-syndication link and the presence of www. in the final resolved URL.

Could this be causing the problem with "No webmention targets" in Bridgy? The last successful Instagram "like" webmention I received was on March 14th.
