Hello , i love your script , it so cool to have make the wait for the elements.

i would like to ask a question. i custom a little bit your bot so i don't have to decide if i want to unfollow someone , it unfollow everyone that don't follow.

but i saw some error in my process .

at one moment i cannot go to the user profile and wait i relaunch the script my follower list is coming back to old one .

Do you think that instagram prevent bot ? (the should) They can detect if you unfollow to mush people and block it ?

Just wanted to share this : D

ps: we can go directely to the person page with the url, don't need to type in the search bar
