@rept36 Did you scrapped multiple accounts before the error or did it happened on the first one ?

Lower the number of threads and use proxy or vpn if you are downloading multiple username in short period of time

I'm encountering the same issue. Could you provide specific instructions on how to reduce the number of threads? I've tried running the command every 10 minutes, but I still frequently receive the "response status 429: Too Many Requests - Rate limit exceeded" error message. Do you have any potential solutions for this?
