I’m making a bot for instagram, comes certain part of the page I have a list of people with the "follow" button on the side.

made that code:

bot = self.bot
        bot.get('https://www.instagram.com/explore/people/suggested/')
        time.sleep(3)
        for i in range(1, 30):
            time.sleep(5)
            seguir = bot.find_element_by_tag_name("button")
            seguir.click()
            time.sleep(5)
            bot.refresh()

With each click of the button "follow", the bot gives a refresh on the page, who followed it some of the page and who is in 2 place rises to 1 and so the bot clicks again. The problem is that when it reaches the 5 or 7 person, the Buga button, it no longer clicks and loops. Below is the screenshot of the list I receive: inserir a descrição da imagem aqui
