Highlights downloaded from Instagram have incorrect date on them. Moreover, all the highlights under a highlight title share the same date. Because of this only the first highlight under every highlight title actually gets downloaded

Command I used:
gallery-dl -o base-directory=/mnt/usb1/instagram_backup -o "directory=[\"{username}\",\"{subcategory}\",\"{highlight_title}\"]" -o filename="{username}_{date:%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S}_UTC.{extension}" --verbose --cookies=/mnt/usb1/ig_cookies/cookies.txt --sleep-request 25-300 --sleep 2-10 -o browser=firefox -o include=highlights https://www.instagram.com/mrbeast/

Output:

A fix for this would be much appreciated

Yeah, but only because of your "filename" setting used here..

I agree. But I don't want to use a different filename pattern to work around this incorrect date bug. Instaloader is able to retrieve the correct date for highlights. Hoping this bug gets fixed.
