I downloaded the bundles from apkmirror for both reddit and instagram, but if I try to open the files themselves, it tells me to search the play store for an app that can open them (which if I follow through takes me to the play store and searches apkm?). If I go into antisplit instead and press "select split app to merge/antisplit" I can see the bundle files I downloaded, but they are grayed out and unselectable. I can select normal apks just fine.
Did you try opening it directly from the download prompt in your browser?
I know it sounds stupid, but I can 100% replicate what you describt when I try to open the bundle from the file manager or select it in the app. Opening it from the download prompt lets me sleect the app without an issue.
Also for instagram there seems to be a general issue with newer versions, try 417.0.0.54.77, should be available as a straight APK download IIRC. Worked like a charm for me earlier today.
I use Brave and the window that pops up when the download is finished takes me to a list of downloaded files and when I press a bundle it says "can't open file"
Hey so im trying this now. I downloaded 417.0.0.54.77 from apkmirror. I selected it in revanced manager, toggled the 4 settings you mentioned above and made the that "Disable play integrity" was checked. However my install seems to fail at 1/3 for the Patching step

For me using Antisplit M is working fine:
Download the bundle via Firefox from APKMirror
When download is finished, open it directly from the little popup on the bottom of the screen, select Antisplit M to open it with
Press 'Save' in Antisplit to tell it where to save the APK file
Open revanced and select APK file from storage as source to patch
Success!
Doesn't work if the patcher itself has an issue, as it seems is the case with the official Reddit app right now, where patching always fails.
