instagram down 2-3 december 2015

Weird things happening with my account since the start of this month. My account is quite old, active, and has 91k followers. Since 2nd December, I am unable to follow more than 175-200 people. I am not talking about 200 at a time, 200 OVERALL. Just me?

i have been following aggressively and persistently for 2 months, close to 1000/day, often 200 in 1-3 minutes.
since a few days ago, 200/day has become a good number.
 
Just recently had my password change, maybe they are cracking down or trying new anti-spam techniques.

I used to follow around 700 a day. Did that for good 3 months. Now it just keeps getting worse for me. Today I can't even follow 100 overall. My following count is 84 and I am unable to follow more unless I unfollow. Strange.

are you following close to the 7500 limit? if so, you are following some private accounts.

I thought about that too. I am only following 84 right now. Can't be having 7000 pending follow request surely.

i just tested it myself by unfollowing a few. i am following 4500, and still i cannot follow a single user since 7pm yesterday..

4500 is still a decent limit. Can't do anything with 200 limit. Hope it's temporary and gets better.

If anyone still having problems with bots not working -> Change proxies
I tried and now everything works fine, just asked my provider to give me new ones
 
they need to redo their whole service from top to bottom and plus their app is power hungry on the phone its not funny that I dont even want to use their app anymore.
