UnableToFetchUserDataError about user-instagram

@iGetAlways me too getting this error.... @EdouardCourty please see and try to solve it as soon as possible

In fact I think I could handle this error better and return a clear error message saying the request failed instead of saying the user does not exist. I'll work on this asap !
Thanks for the feedback anyway, it's always a pleasure to have interaction !

so is there no way to solve this error?

Hello guys, there is no way to fix this. Try to send less requests.

Error: An error occured while fetching data for user edouard_courty. Maybe this user does not exist ?

Hello guys, the problem here is you are being rate limited, or IP-banned. I had this problem too and the only thing that fixed it was to wait a bit before sending another request...
It's a pain in the ass, I've been trying everything I could to make the request perfectly human and legit, does not change anything.
Also, using it on a VPS can actually never work, sometimes the IP range used by these servers are already blacklisted and the request fails directly.
