Does anyone knows how FL is working behind the scene when FLC or any tasks that is scraping users are being performed? I am more curious on what FL is doing when you shutdown FL, reboot PC, and startup FL again with the same project and all settings unchanged. My question/comments are:
Does FL start from the beginning and scrape the same users it did the day before? If so, the user(s) will have a lot of likes on their feed and possibly comments as well.
Is FL that advanced and knows what users have already been scraped and will ignore them? I don't think it's that smart.
I am aware of the setting 'Comment on a user's photo once' checkbox. This sounds to me like it will only comment one time to this particular photo. It will comment on other photos that is from the same users and this isn't good. They may catch on that the comments are generic and the comment may not pertinent to the image itself.
I am posting this because there isn't a thread which talks about how FL works behind the scene. It's basically because we don't know since we are not the developers of this software and can only theorize. Also, I have noticed one of the accounts FL has liked on has liked more than I asked for using FLC method. I only wanted to like 3 photos of each feed. However, since I let FL run multiple days with same settings and I DO shutdown my PC at the end of the day and start back up again the next, FL maybe scraping from the beginning of the list.
Your inputs are greatly appreciated.
