how to handle multiple pinterest accounts/multithreading

[Harambulus]

I had previoulsy been just copying the template to a new folder with new user details and running seperately.

but now i want to make more and more accounts i want to somehow be able to multithread using the same template and tables.

I thought of using a switch on each line of the users of the table. Set to 1 if active and then the next instanc ewill check if it is set to 1 active for current line and if yes move to next etc til it finds an unactive username.

This sounded good till i realised that if it crashes it would screw it up.

Ah just as i typed this i realised this is what bad end is for isnt it? if there are any erros i can tel it to delete that active cell?

Hmm reading the wiki it says there can be issues with multithreading and tables.

Thoughts?

Use global variables with a delay at the start of the script. Note the the counter/globalvar as thread_id, use this to reference {thread_id}.txt containing user info.

I found this to be the most reliable way because if there's a need to edit the same txt file by multiple threads at the same time (example: removing dead accounts from the list), there may be conflicts. You could also make an extra copy append to a single txt file if that helps keep track

I had an idea before to use thread_id to fetch line number from txt file containing accounts but there's no way to write to line # safely
