If you quickly expand the list of comments, follow or like (quickly) through the Instagrapi App, then you will also be blocked In order not to block, you need to pretend to be a real user, collect data from many other accounts, have your own proxy for each account.

Describe the bug
My goal is to obtain all the comments from an instagram post. Currently, cl.media_comments() does that well, until my account gets suspended on instagram.
To Reproduce
comments = cl.media_comments(media_id, 1000)
Expected behavior
When I limited the number of comments to 300, it worked as expected with no errors.
However, I did change the second parameter to Inf to attempt to get all the comments on the post, resulting in account suspension.
Additional context
I was just wondering if this was a result of the way the private API was written such that multiple calls were made and thus alerted instagram that something suspicious is happening? If I were to load the comments manually (constantly clicking the plus button), I probably wouldn't have been suspended.
Would love to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks for creating this amazing tool!
