- Use this script with caution. Excessive scrolling and loading a large number of followers may cause Instagram to flag your account as suspicious, potentially resulting in temporary or permanent restrictions.
- Be mindful of the frequency of running this script to avoid potential issues with Instagram. Limit the usage of the script and monitor your account for any unusual activity.
- The filtering of followers based on keywords may not always be accurate, as some legitimate users might also use the specified hashtags. It is essential to manually review the results before taking any action.
