username requires manual verification on instagram (429). #2

oh, also the available names are not outputting properly to available.txt, all lines output read
Can confirm.
But I faced this issue while checking twitters.
I even tried using a single thread but the issue is not solved.
@dremara @yellow Yes, I am aware of the issue and am working on creating a caching system to solve this. The issue is due to Instagram's strict rate limits. You can only make so many requests per 15 minute window.
A quick and dirty workaround is to not use more than 2 threads and 300 word lists when checking Instagram or Twitter. All the other services shouldn't have a problem with the 100 threads.
@crock the problem is the proxy checker and the whole proxy integration isn't working.

excuse me if this is an easy solve, i'm not a tech buff.
i'm running 100 threads on a list of 70000 words to check for instagram using approx 350 free proxies that all check out as good.
however 95% of my returns are 'requires manual verification on instagram (429).' and there will then be a very brief period where the script works for a few usernames before going back to the 429 error.
i know i'm doing something wrong, i know the answer may be obvious to most, but i'd really appreciate some help with this one.
thanks.
