How to run InstaPy on a digital ocean Ubuntu droplet

Use https://m.do.co/c/be9ec19b28c1 to get 10$ free to start your InstaPy journey 😉

  • Make sure to use the 1GB RAM version (or better)

  • Set headless=True in your InstaPy file

  • Note that current Chrome browser and chromedriver needed for the install only support 64-bit architecture.
