finished writing the scrapper, it does the following

  1. file1 - login's to the required Instagram account → navigates to the reels page → starts auto scrolling and collecting reel links for N amount of time → appends all the links to a csv
  2. file2 - loads the csv → downloads all the reels using instaloader → extracts other metadata like username, likes, number of comments, timestamp etc

@aatmanvaidya can you share file1 and instructions to run it? I can try keeping it running on my account when I get a chance.
