I think that error started to happen when the bot saw the black Instagram page in screenshot
Since that error happened every time the bot wants to go to a user page to follow them it gets the same new error.

I checked the network tab on devtools and 2 request fails to ERROR 429 Too many requests so I guess I'm being ratelimited by Instagram

Question
What I don't understand is that I followed only 75 persons during that 4 hours 30 minutes period and I got ratelimited why's that?
If it's not the follow then it's maybe the likes?
Here are my ENV vars

image

In that 4hours and 30 minutes I followed 75 persons and liked 175 images
Do you think 175 Images liked is too much?
I've read online that the max in 24 hours would be 300-400 but they recommended 200 per day so that's what I did (see above)

Is there a MAX_LIKES_PER_HOUR variable @mifi ?
