Version 3.7.10

New features

🎁 Hashtags & Places feed-interaction - So right now, when you are running interact-by-source flow using hashtags / place, the bot is interacting with the likers of the posts under the hashtag / place feed. With the new version, the bot is able to interact with the posts on the feed itself. Currently, the only available interaction is like the feed's posts, but comment & follow will be added in future ;)

To the available sources list of: @natgeo-followers @natgeo-following amazingtrips-top-likers amazingtrips-recent-likers P-antartica-top-likers P-antartica-recent-likers

Now added: amazingtrips-top-posts amazingtrips-recent-posts P-antartica-top-posts P-antartica-recent-posts

• Currently, using feed's posts is available only when interacting. Scrapping hashtag & place feeds will be available in future

🎁 Session speed control - Until today, the bot calculated its sleeping time (between actions during a session) according to an internet speed-test that been done on the beggining of the bot-session. From today, you can have a full control on the bot-speed and sleeping time, using --speed 2 parameter. The value must be between 1 to 4 (1 slowest, 4 fastest).

Thanks to @davebaird who contributed this feature.

🎁 Session Warmup (Patreon only) - In order to add some more human-like behaviour (and reduce the option for a ban), we have added a new functionality called warmup, which do exactly what you would do when opening the Instagram app - before the session starts, the bot will swipe and interact with posts from your feed & from your explore-feed. You can set the amount of warming-up time (in minutes) using --warmup-time-before-session 1-3 parameter

Enhancements

⚡️ Added a new functionality to open a target-profile page - instead of searching & entering the profile, now the bot will randomly choose if he should open the target-profile-page using a deep-link or using the search page. ⚡️ Enhanced the mechanism of opening a profile / post using deep-link ⚡️ Added report of amount of scrapped-profile during a scraping session

Bugfixes:

🐞 Unfollowing fixed. We actually fixed that database hasn't been updated when bot followed someone. Now it works as expected, but if you want to unfollow users followed by older version bot, please use --unfollow-followed-by-anyone together with whitelist.txt 🐞 Fix crash when cannot read followers/following counters of self profile 🐞 Fixed max-session-time limit to be more accurate 🐞 Fixed min-following limit parsing 🐞 Fixed 'No likes, lets scroll down' bug 🐞 Fixed "Account tab not found" crash 🐞 Fixed migration from old database since v3.7.0

🤖 Not a feature but worth a mention 🤖 We have built a CI pipeline for packing & releasing Insomniac versions. We hope that from today, it will be easier for us to deliver new versions much faster, using build-automation.
