As you like. Anyway if after a while you're tired of bothering with proxies, the annoying technical knowledge that comes with it, and losing your social accounts, let me know. ^^

If you're going to use residential, then your provider has to be really trustworthy, otherwise you will just get a bunch of IPs that have already been blocked or will be blocked very soon.

Also, you will still need to get around the IP bans so you will need proxies to do that. I recommend mobile proxies but residential do work as well. The IG accounts that you use to scrape may be burned faster with residential proxies.

No need for proxies.

Instagram do not have any CORS policy, at least for profile URL's.
So assuming you have some web presence with visitors, you can make all your visitors scrape Instagram.

A few thousand daily visitors can easily scrape millions of Instagram profiles per day.

What would you guys say is the cheapest and most efficient way to scrape like 200,000 accounts per day? Would it be to use IPV6 proxies and just replace the accounts as they die, or IPV4 accounts and pray that I can find a good supplier, or just go with mobile proxies and pay the extra money so I don't get banned?
 
Ever since November it's been super hard to not get accounts and ips banned. Static residential proxies don't even seem to work and even mobile ips are getting banned for me. I don't even understand how that's possible. If anybody has a solution I would 100 times over appreciate a response and I would be HAPPY to pay for this information.
 
Anyone running into trouble scraping over the last 24 hours? I've gone from 90% success rate to 98% fail (redirect to login) using residential proxies.
 
Same here with residential proxies AND same with mobile proxies.

In november that was the case too, and in my opinion it was related to the US election. Is it here related to the US capitol issues, or just instagram killing anonymous/public scrapping ?
