    Followliker + new Instagram algorithm = Blocked Following 400 Error :(

    OP here again, and a bit of an odd followup. I've had the bot running conservatively for the last few days and the good news is that there have been no blocks at all with the conservative settings. However, the first two days, I had gains of ~20 followers a day with these conservative settings...

    Gotcha. Thank you for the clarification on the number of tasks. My follow strategy is to follow hashtags only. I have about 20 different hashtags that I target that are applicable to my account.

    Uh oh. So that means with any bot (like Followliker): July 31st, 2018: unable to follow and unfollow, unable and post comments on other user's photos/videos December 11, 2018: unable to like/unlike So I guess the end is near....or is there some other way bots like Followliker can automate tasks?

    Just curious, 600-700 each? So you follow 600 a day, unfollow 600 a day, like 600 a day, and comment 600 times a day? Just wanted to know more about this and what type of overall gains you get per day on average. Thanks.

    OP here. Just waned to follow up on this. I stopped botting for about 72 hours, and then did the following: 1. Installed FL on yet another machine 2. Moved Followliker from my office machine to a home machine 3. Updated the firmware on my home router and spoofed the MAC address on the router to...

    Darn, that's what I was afraid of. I'm going to check back in a couple of days (currently turned off followliker) and I'll keep my fingers crossed, but I have a bad feeling about this.

    Yeah, I'm going to lay off botting for a week, and when I start it back up, just in case, I'll start it back up again from my home machine (not work) and I'll create a new IP address at home. I did notice today that I had Followliker off at work, and when I used my iPhone at work, I also got a...

    Yes. I'm thinking Instagram is now able to specifically recognize the device ID (FL is listed as an Android device if I remember correctly) and block bot-like activity from that device. This may be nothing new, but I've never run across this problem, and it's a shame since FL no longer works for...

    Yes. They're also testing out bringing back the chronological feed for some users. (I'd post a link, but I need 15 posts for that.) Already explained that I did this. Used the IP at home, even on a different machine running FL. Same result, blocked follow.

    Followliker + new Instagram algorithm = Blocked Following 400 Error :(

    I've had my IG account for over 3 years, been using Followliker for about a year, and never had a problem of being banned or anything. Never ran Followliker 24/7, never used auto-comments and only had semi-conservative settings for follow/unfollow. I used it only for follow/unfollow/like. Well...
