Reddit instagram bot, is a bot that uses web scrapping technologies to scarpe the most famous memes from reddit (Where memes are made) and post them to @thiru.bot on instagram It uses the following tags to find great memes
['dankmemes','ProgrammerHumor','memes','wholesomememes','comedyheaven']
The bot uses reddits api to log into reddit
Then the bot loops a 100 times and random choices one of the above tag to find an meme that makes sense as in is the hottest 🔥, then the bot checks if it's a textual meme or not, if it is it gets skipped else the image download and processing starts
The bot gets the post and waits for it to completely be loaded then it extracts the image url and checks if it a random image link or one from imgur.com if it's a random link the image is got and processed as in cropped for instagram, image id added to POSTED_CACHE and such stuff. Else if the image is from imgur.com, the bot uses bs4 to scrape their website and get the image followed by the similar processing.
