Failed to follow user (button did not change state) Logic #33

Closed DoubleUltera closed 3 years ago

DoubleUltera commented 3 years ago

Hi,

I noticed that whenever instauto gets the Failed to follow user (button did not change state) error it continues to:

  1. Like photos of that user which then results to an error, and
  2. The user gets appended to followed.json although it was not successfully followed.

Also, I think it would be more appropriate for the bot to sleep because I think the Failed to follow user (button did not change state) is caused by stricter bot detection logic. Just a suggestion though.

Thanks! Noname

@DoubleUltera I agree we could probably sleep. The reason why followed.json gets updated is because I didn't want the bot to get stuck trying the same user over and over again in case there is an issue with following that user.

@AlexSade try to delete cookies and start over. Also make sure you're actively using the mobile app on the same wifi / public IP as your bot for a few days.

Is this still a problem?

Have added failed: true to the logged followed.json entry if failed.

This is already fixed since the update. Closing.

Thank you.
