How to get real-time who likes a certain post on Instagram?

The task is to get the id and / or username of the Instagram user who liked a certain post in real time and / or with a slight delay?
I found in their API in Real-Time only to receive notifications if someone posted a photo with a certain tag.
If there is some more tricky way?
or just swotting on GET/media/media-id/likes ?
but then, according to the description, it is only 100 requests per hour and then create a bunch of applications? to bypass the limits

No, there are no more tricky ways imho.
And as far as I remember (I could be wrong), they have limits, including IP, so creating a bunch of applications will not save.

Who is the user object for? instagram.com/developer/realtime/#
In order to avoid frequent repeated requests, you need to skip frequent similar requests.
I did something like this https ://github.com/zoonman/instazmt/blob/master/ro... faced about 20-30 requests per second for the love tag. The project is pure pampering, do not judge strictly.
What is the correct way to check?
Always read data when the first object arrives. Save (cache), then update if the saved version is out of date.
