Can you explain in more detail why residential proxies are more reliable and secure compared to mobile proxies? I thought mobile proxies were better because they are more expensive

Both will work like a charm for Instagram farming, residential proxies are way cheaper at PIA Proxy etc. while mobile proxies will cut a hole in your pocket.

For exaple, PIA Proxy charged less than a dollar per IP for residential IPs - https://www.piaproxy.com/

While, you may check the average market rates for mobile proxies on Google, here's a service pricing link for comparison - https://proxy-seller.com/mobile-proxies/

Mobile proxy is the safe way to go longterm without issues.
Just like that girl from the bar who claimed that you're the only one she dates - residential proxies are like street walkers, you never know who did what with them and when . At the same time when you use resi IP, there might be another user commiting fraud on the same social and that will get your acc banned as well. Because residential are resold on many levels.

All of that applies to mobile as well but because of CGNAT and how often mobile rotates social networks can't penalize users based on mobile IP's.

For insta i think residential proxies are more secure compared to mobile ones.
 
The summary is Mobile Proxies are better ofcourse, but Residentials work too for the farming. Mobile Proxies cut a hole in the Cashflow of the operation.
 
It was interesting , I am confused which one to choose

For managing Instagram accounts on an Android emulator, residential proxies are generally the better option. Residential proxies offer more anonymity and are less likely to be flagged by Instagram as coming from a data center (which is common with mobile proxies).

What are you on about, that's completely wrong. Keep proxying buddy.

Mobile proxies are residential as well but more powerful than residential. How exactly you thought that mobile IP ASN are comparable to DC is beyond me.
 
Mobile proxy always better. If you make in-house mobile proxies then even better.

The best option is Mobile Data with Real Smartphone long term.
 
I would recommend you to use Residential proxy for the Instagram account as it is more reliable.

1 residential per account to be on the safe side and avoid pushing the actions too far. You can opt for mobile if you want "a bit more room for error" when pushing actions, but I don't think it's worth the price differential.

-> Scale horizontally with more accounts instead of trying to max out actions on each account; this way, you'll be good with residential, and you'll save money over mobile proxies.
