You have to make sure that your enviroment variables are set up correctly, since the script checks a new post's ID against the one in you envvars.

Following up on @aternis, you can see all Discord API ping formats [here](https://discordjs.guide/miscellaneous/parsing-mention-arguments.html#how-discord-mentions-work) (this is a discord.js documentation but the API format is the same)

You probably have two different python versions installed. Make sure to run `pip3 list` to find out if you have installed requests on python 3. Then run `instagram-discord.py` and see...

I have created a version that uses a local `.env` for storage. You can find it [here](https://github.com/lwskdesign/Instagram-to-discord).

You can use `screen` (`apt install screen`) to execute the code simultaneously.
