429: Too many requests #13

Open bartek2341 opened 2 years ago

bartek2341 commented 2 years ago

Even a low request rate (about 1 per minute) causes 429 error from instagram api, wchich already lasts more than an hour. Does instagram block my server IP? Is there any workaround?

Gimenz commented 2 years ago

idk for now, never testing about it. maybe, why not add delay?

I don't know much about proxies, but is it possible to implement ip hiding for this package?

Gimenz commented 2 years ago

i don't really understand about the proxy, but if you can implement it, do it
