I'm having a similar issue. Both photos and videos stopped uploading about a week ago.

I'm receiving this error: "Something is wrong. Please check your input and try again."

Seems to be related to this issue #1111 , but it doesn't seem like it was ever resolved.

@AKwoKWH not fixed, still having that issue :(

[ohld]

We definitely need someone to find a way to upload a photo via script. And then fix Instabot for all our community. I think it is possible to find a working solution here, in Github.

@ohld is this done or not yet?

I'm getting 429 too many requests all the time :(

[voron434]

Oh, changed account and now success :)

[sleebapaul]

Is it fixed? There's an update?
