@Snbig Thanks for the quick update.
Yep, there’s a limit on instagrap api calls, and I’m not sure what is it.
You can try to call some functions 2000 times without timeout, and you will get a messege from instagram “ an error occured please try again later”.
By the way, could add anothet option to export the results as an excel file? First coloumn with user id, and second one with the username

Regarding to Instagram GraphQL API limitation which has been defined here, API is limited to 200 calls per hour and others such as CPU limiting and etc., so using timeout for each API requests is not functional to get rid of the limitations.

I fixed this issue by caching 'Rate limit' message with stopping the execution of code and showing the unchecked userid/username d0002ff

If i could find a way to bypass Instagram rate limiting i will apply it with new commit.

SNbig, thank you for this script. I am new to Python and am trying to run this script on Qpython3 APK on a rooted Android device (Android 9.0). I cannot for the life of me figure out how to run it on the built-in terminal. I've read and googled for hours and can't seem to figure it out, is it even possible to run your script on an Android device? Thanks!
