Instagram bot #1

Closed davidemesso closed 3 years ago

davidemesso commented 3 years ago

I made just for fun a instagram page (@inspiration_davido) with a bot hosted on heroku that posts every 5 minutes a image generated with this bot. i ensured to credit you in every posts and on the bio. i hope this is not a problem in case i will remove it

That is a really creative idea, wow!

I am just suspecting but wouldn't Instagram mark the account as spam (and maybe block the account) if your bot posts after every 5 minutes?

I studied a lot about instagram bot policy, there is no cap on daily posts, instead i got my captions blocked for spam because i got over the maximum ammount of daily hashtags, i forgot that. after that i got the page blocked for 2/3 hours but now it's active i just cant caption, comment, like i can only post and upload stories, and the post ratio is now twice an hour, but after about 300 posts it's still running perfectly
