Looks like you wrote alot code to put this together, nice work :)

Does yours have any functionality that InstaPy does not?

If im not wrong instapy use real browser (selenium), OP script use pure requests, so its way more lightweight and perfect for multithreading. I bet OP script could be used in 300 threads on some cheap linux VPS, to run instapy in 300 threads powerful dedicated server wont be enough.
 
Thanks a lot to all of you, if you see yourself using the tool it would be great if you could star the tool since I wanna get it more popular to find more contributors and improve it further
 
will try it thanks if you could add a feature where the bot can follow selected profiles followers from likes it would be perfect!
 
would you be up for freelancing something for me?

I have an idea of the whole process but know 0 coding, and tbh Ive never been good at coding so might be better to just outsource it lol

I will add that there is a difference between OP's tool and InstaPy.

InstaPy it's a scraper. It's main purpose is to automate tasks (such as scrolling, clicking, etc - basically interacting with a web page).

OP's tool is a scraper - can only get requests and html data and download it, it can't interact with the page.

Depending on what you need, each tool is good for it's own job. But they can't be really compare between each other.
 
Nice project OP , i would love to contribute on your repo, will check it out thoroughly later..

That is partly true though I am already working on interaction functionality:

you can already like ,unlike, comment and uncomment only through using http requests
 
Also if anybody could provide me with some fresh IG accounts I would be glad for them, I constantly need some to test new features. Thanks
 
Thank for sharing but I have no idea how to run it after downloading it from GitHub.
