Describe your issue

I am working to make a small change to unfollow_non_followers to only unfollow those user which the only the bot has followed (as opposed to users that human has followed via instagram app, for example)

In the code below, I am wondering what is the purpose of calling the followed.txt here when it is also calling the followings from instagram directly via get_user_following

... followed_file = "followed.txt" followed_list = self.read_list_from_file(followed_file) unfollow_list = [] unfollow_list += [x for x in followed_list if x in nonfollowerslist] unfollow_list += [x for x in nonfollowerslist if x not in followed_list] unfollow_file = self.read_list_from_file("unfollow.txt") new_unfollow_list = [] new_unfollow_list += [x for x in unfollow_file if x in unfollow_list] new_unfollow_list += [x for x in unfollow_list if x not in unfollow_file] ...

Please let me know if I can offer any more detail. Thanks

I wrote this line. the reason for this code is , to add new non-followers , to the "END" of unfollow_file , so this way , we keep track of non-followers by "ORDER" , so older non-followers will be unfollow first
