            Actually the warning message says the user is not acessible, but I don't know why, every user happen this, so I can't unfollow the unfollowers:

            I am looking for a tool that allows me to post to Instagram from python.

            I would like to automate the process using a scheduler like Heroku or GCP cloud scheduler, so we think that something like selenium that uses GUI is not really suitable. (It may be possible to run it with selenium, though.)

            I already tried instapy-cli and instabot, but they seemed to be unavailable now.

In an attempt to halve the time needed for the program to run, I'm trying to have the program only follow or unfollow each time I run it. Instead of having to manually comment out one method or the other, I tried put both in a list, and use random.choice() to pick one or the other to run.
