What aboutTimmy Mallet for Slymon? Not sure about Gimmie...she’d want/expect someone really highbrow but someone like Jamie Winstone - putting on the faux accent then slipping back into a normal accent to show the two sides to Gimmie.
ETA: That isn’t meant to be a slight on Jamie Winstone
Don't understand a word but I love it!I’ve had to join you guys making burner accounts, I’m not even having fun and getting blocked for being cheeky with mine
Instagram first throttled my IP w/o being logged in so I had to figure out how to log in using Python, they’ve now stopped my account as I was RINSING it (a list of about 10 Instagrammers every single minute on the dot, I’m greedyand naive). I’ve now had to create the burner and be more reasonable with my usage and try to appear vaguely human.
Script back on though, and he’s still gaining
Nah Slymon’s in the trippy spare room, sobbing behind the curtain to the bathroom that his bot buying spree has been sussed out.Are they even sleeping in the same bed? I doubt it.
I’m afraid this has gone waaaay over my head, I’m just too thickHe’ll pretend it’s us from this thread because he’s thick. Nothing I’ve done is hacking - I’m not even logged into my Instagram when scraping these numbers much less his.
The script is written in Python using Selenium (triggers web browser like a person) and BeautifulSoup (helps you handle HTML and Json and make it “human readable”) modules alongside another json module & a time module (to sleep my script so insta don’t block my bot), and a random module (to generate random numbers to sleep). Python’s own website has guidance on how to write insta bots, it’s a pretty standard project and definitely not malicious.
What I’m doing is automating what any human can do. Open his insta (or yours, or anyone’s) and view source. In chrome it’s view > developer > view source. There’s different bits of meta data but the one I’m interested in is userInteractionCount

Where you can see his follower count is now 963,306. My script grabs that chunk, cleans it up, and saves it to a .tsv saved locally on my laptop. It “sleeps” for a randomised period, and loops back through the list.
I’ve got a list of users the script is running through and none of them have experienced the bots that someone has allegedly bought. So no he’s not being targeted by Russia
Also this script is a bastard that I’m still working on bettering, to send it to an actual database on my server rather than a locally hosted .tsv, largely so I can turn my fucking laptop off, so I’m not certainly not capable of running an army of Russian teen bots sadly
Me too, absolutely bowled over with the genius of it all. I can’t make head nor tail of it!I’m afraid this has gone waaaay over my head, I’m just too thickHowever, I bow down to your utter excellence and applaud you for your hard work and commitment to the cause
Exactly! And not only that, a mysterious someone has also bought a load of followers for his main account? What a load of bullshitWhy would someone hack his account and delete negative comments
And by the stuff sitting on his own BML, sorry, BLM highlights, if someone you know makes a racist comment, you call them out on it. Come on, Simon.Exactly! And not only that, a mysterious someone has also bought a load of followers for his main account? What a load of bullshit(But on the very slim off chance that it’s true, that’s some epic level trolling).
And I can’t believe he’s thrown Clemmie under the bus AGAIN. So your wife’s a racist. But you’re still married to her and carrying on like nothing has happened. No amount of linking to IG accounts run by POC are going to make people forget about it. Give it up, mate, you’re over. You built the brand together and now you’re both going DAAHHNNN. And it couldn’t happen to a nicer pair of absolute twunts.
Nah you're not thick (I didn't understand it either). Everyone has different areas they excel at.I’m afraid this has gone waaaay over my head, I’m just too thickHowever, I bow down to your utter excellence and applaud you for your hard work and commitment to the cause
