Hello, I'm developing instagram bot and I wonder is it possible for Instagram to know that over many IG accounts which works on other bot instances there is me. I mean what factors instagram uses to determine that there is one user over few accounts. I've developed other proxy and User agent on each, but I want to be sure that are all factors. Thanks!

Splitting up IP and proxy you mean by IP my address and by proxy subnets etc?

first beware of proxy ip leak, then same user agents, screen resolution, guid, same actions on same time, etc, not so into it so cannot give the most perfect answer

The algorithm has countless ways of detecting you. Logging requests, user agents, so many things, I think I’d make a 10 paragraph long post if I needed to.

Best to use a tool someone else has made, but good luck if you decide to go ahead and make your own.

You should research about the term "browser fingerprinting" first.

And please don't use cheap browser emulations or tools like ZennoPoster, Ubot Studio, BAS etc. Since you don't need them. Besides the fact that they leave footprints.

Mainly age and account activity. Instagram knows human movements within the app.

Could be a million things. Change your hardware and internet connection, and see if you still get banned.
You need to vary your footprints more, and your footprints need to be congruent.

I read somewhere that IG they all know we're botting but they want "interactions" that's why they ignore bots to some extent.
