Description
I have tried all the options to unfollow accounts but all of them fail. It looks like it is unfollowing but the following still remain the same. Unless, I open instagram on my browser and reload my profile page moments after the bot unfollow someone which is when the followers actually change.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the bot's unfollow workflow described in issue #167 and compare the account state before and after reloading Instagram in a browser. Trace the unfollow entry point and the response handling; done means an unfollow is reflected without a manual profile reload.
