So I was thinking about doing something cool with Python, and suddenly this came into my mind. What if I can write a python script that notifies me when someone un-follows me on Instagram.

Surprisingly, this actually turned out to be very simple to implement. So, let me show you how I got this done.

So the script must do the following :

1. It should retrieve all the followers of an instagram user for every given time interval.
   For example, if the time interval is 40 minutes, it means the script must retrieve the followers of a user every 40 minutes.

2. When it retrieves the followers, the script must then compare the current follower list with the follower list from the previous timestamp.

So the users who are not included in the current follower list, but are included in the previous follower list and are the ones that un-followed for that given time period.

3. It must then send this list of unfollowers somewhere, so that I or the person the using the script can see it.
