I’m using 15-30 hashtags per post but the posting is not the issue, the issue is what people to follow.

I don't think following based on hashtags is the most efficient way to bot. There's no way to reliably filter out bots if you do it that way. I'd recommend following users that interact with accounts in your same niche and use strict filters to only follow active users.

Of course you can reliably filter out bots, the same as you can for all search results. Just because a profile interacted with accounts in a niche, does not mean they are not a bot, just a bot in your niche. Same to active users, bots are more active than normal users by definition
You are right in the sense you can never 100% filter out bots, but that applies to all searches you run. There are numerous ways to identify bots as posted on the BHW forum every few weeks. By far the most popular botting strategy is follow / unfollow. So just look for accounts with a disproportion in their followings / followers. Perhaps the ratio between rather than specific values amongst other things

Maybe "reliably" wasn't the right word. I was merely trying to say that there was no guarantee that the accounts followed would not be bots. I suggested they "use strict filters" to try to not follow bots. Following/followers would just be two of many variables used to filter out bots.

Then I agree you cannot "guarantee" as in 100%. But some bots you cannot even ID manually. But everything is a tradeoff, use a bot and ID 90+% and process many orders of magnitude more than you can manually is worth it
I recommend you to research in your competition and use instapy to interact with their followers not raw tags.
There are more chances that people interested in a niche follow accounts than tags.
I use this method + autoposter for over 4 months now and i get around 3 to 5k followers a month. PM me for more info.

Try to find subniches. like #labradordogs. Find a hashtags with 1 Million, and small ones with 50-100k and mix them together. 50/50.
In small ones it will be easy to rank. once you rank on the small ones chances to get to the top in the big hashtags increase
