How long are your blocks lasting? I've had 24h blocks and 7 day blocks, just curious if you are hitting the latter.

Why are you scraping based on account instead of based on, e.g., tag? Then you can just periodically see who is posting under that hashtag. It doesn't work for slow niches, but if you are scraping nike I imagine you are scraping fast-moving niches which should work fine for this approach.

I was banned on Followmatic for 24h (liking at max permitted rate), but was still able to use Instagress (normal rate) and the iPhone app without problems.

Personally, I've used Instagress for comparison testing, and if I keep my rate at "slow" or "normal", I've never run into any issues with follows and likes. (I don't believe in comments - too obviously spammy.)
