List of people already followed / unfollowed to prevent multiple "folllow/unfollow" cycles on the same target account #175

I keep re-following people that the bot already followed (and after X days unfollowed). Is there a way to avoid that? So that once a user was followed and unfollowed it will never be followed again by adding it to some kind of list? Otherwise, repeated follow and unfollow patterns on the same users will be noticed by the users that get followed/unfollowed multiple times. This makes the bot very obvious and will lead to being reported...

it's not supposed to do that. This code is supposed to take care of that: https://github.com/mifi/instauto/blob/96b5fa837f3375aa0df1e1397eef0c9d97a72c56/src/index.js#L676

do you see if those users that it followed get added to followed.json?

Thanks - in which folder would I find that file? (on Raspberry pi)
