Doesn't instagram claim messages are e2e encrypted? How can this work without them having access to all messages?

They aren't E2EE by default. You have to enable it manually.

Ah okay, thanks, I don't use Instagram.

It is all closed-source anyway, so would not count on this "e2e".

End to end is exactly what it says. It's decrypted at both ends.
