[BUG] Using the API might blacklist your instagram account (FeedbackRequired error)

[rickturner2001]

It appears that the team at Meta has introduced a feature designed to identify questionable requests. To counter this, they have established a system to mark accounts as blacklisted (I'm guessing it's more of a flag than an actual blacklist).

Once blacklisted, your account will lose the ability to perform actions like liking, disliking, following, unfollowing, and posting new media. Essentially, this means you won't have the capacity to automate any desired actions. Regarding the API, any attempt to execute the actions mentioned earlier will result in a FeedbackRequired error.

FeedbackRequired occurs sometimes, but it's easy to work around. I had FeedbackRequired even if I did not use any api wrapper, but actively use Instagram application (when you make a lot of likes, subscriptions or write comments)

Great to know, thanks for the insight. It seems that the error eventually goes a way after a few days.
