Instapy: Is the bot still working for someone ?

[Edhim]

I am getting blocked at the first like / comment

wondering if it still working for someone.
Thanks

[xuhig]

blocked too....

[Flaunkerton2395]

I'm getting blocked too unless I run headless_browser = False and opening up random tabs in the session.

[GreatMalboro]

Can you explain what you mean opening up random tabs? Like go into a bit of detail?

[Flaunkerton2395]

add 'headless_browser=false' to your parameters in your script and then when it opens, just open another tab and go to random websites.

I'm not banned but I'm using a 2months old instapy version, not sure if it's random or not.. tho.

Can you please specify what version you're using? Because I had no problem till I updated it.

I reverted using this command and the bot is working for me

git checkout git rev-list -n 1 --first-parent --before="2019-06-27 00:00" master

You've got me excited about this but can you double check that command cause when I enter it nothing happens It just moves to next line and a arrow shows

There is an extra ‘ at the end of the command I pasted. It’s fixed now. I forgot to mention I’m on macOS

[posittron]

What would it be if it was on windows?

For me bot is working fine now. Using on macOS and Linux. But currently I’m using it only for unfollowing and photo liking.

bot is working for me but i've got a notification from instagram to change my password and that the next time they're not going to let me like and follow again...

[jonap339]

I received the same notification 3 times and all my clients too. Instagram blocked 3 accounts of the 8 I'm handling

Is the block temporary ? how much does it last ?

[jonap339]

I hope it's temporary

[EJS00102]

Has there been any progress on this issue? I just started using InstaPy and now this happens.

[NooriP]

Same

Yes a few days ago all my accounts received temp blocks on very low settings on likes/follows/unfollows, then I read this issue and decided to pause for a few days. I was using the latest version, mobile proxies etc. I did notice a few days ago problems with cookies saving. I will try reverting back to the previous version :)

[GreatMalboro]

So none of you are running windows but you have the the code running correctly? Can you tell me what you did? Besides whas mentioned above?

[hijak]

set action delay to 20 sec i am having more luck with this

the bots are too rapid on there desktop site and hit rate limiting.

[lezlea]

I think it's different for everyone and every account...

• I've tried action delays at 30 seconds, 45, 60, 90, 120 etc. etc. all being the minimum.
• I've tried random action delays between 96 - 210%, or action delays with less of a difference
• I've tried doing 5 actions an hour, every hour for 8 hours. I've tried doing 20 actions an hour for 2 hours (more in bulk actions).
• I've tried mixing follows with likes and liking comments (on low numbers). I've tried just focusing on follows.
• I've tried running overnight (when the mobile app def isn't open at the same time), I've tried running when it's the 'normal' waking hours
• I've tried keeping the same session for 4 hours, and I've tried doing quick short sessions every hour.

On my accounts that are having issues with temp block none of the above seems to make a difference - even on a well warmed up account, mobile proxy, generally I can do the first 5 actions then hit a temp action block. Sometimes it will run ok for a day then BAM, another temp block. Can't seem to get around it!

On my accounts that are running well - changing the above doesn't make a difference, they still run well! On the accounts running well they were running at 45-70 sec action delay, up to 22 follows an hour (randomised) and max 120 follows a day over 8 hours (with some unfollows too). But I saw an issue on Sunday last week and have been paused since so I can't say that's the same for this week.... since it keeps changing!

[e1x4]

I have action blocked, about following, just in instapy, in my ig app it's all ok.
