What is the main limit to doing so? In log file i get response like "Reclaiming failed request back to the list or queue. Request blocked, retrying it again with different session"

Hi!

Limit is per hashtag, exact logic for it unclear, we just know that Instagram prevents to get posts over some amount in some date range. In other words they allow web visitor to scroll over posts without login, but max amount limited to thousands since real human unlikely will scroll for such big amount of posts. We trying to find a ways around limits all the time, reclaiming blocked request is the case when data call was blocked by Instagram anti-bot AI and we retrying call with changes to bypass protection and get more data.

I´m going to close the issue now, but if there would be anything else we could help with, please let us know.
