Instagram adds tracking via the query string which caused Signal to be unable to lookup the group. Organizations looking to leave Instagram are posting a link to their Signal group as a 'Link in Bio' on Instagram and due to the URL tracking instagram adds, Signal was unable to lookup the group. There might be a better place in the code to remove the query string. Def open to feedback.
