Description:
When attempting to run the bot_follow.py script using Python, the following error is encountered:

Expected Behavior:
The script should initialize the GithubAPIBot object without errors, provided that the necessary parameters, including the username, are provided correctly.

Actual Behavior:
The script raises a TypeError with the message "Missing/Incorrect username," indicating that there is an issue with the provided username or that it is missing.

Steps to Reproduce:

Ensure Python is installed.
Navigate to the directory containing the bot_follow.py script.
Run the script using Python: python.exe .\bot_follow.py

Additional Information:

This issue seems to originate from the GithubAPIBot class constructor (__init__) in the GithubAPIBot.py file.
The error suggests that the username parameter is either missing or incorrect.
Verify that the username parameter is provided correctly when initializing the GithubAPIBot object.
Check for any typos or issues with the username variable or its assignment.
Ensure that the script is being run in an environment where the necessary dependencies and configurations are set up correctly.

Potential Fix:

Double-check the username parameter when initializing the GithubAPIBot object in the bot_follow.py script.
Ensure that the username is provided as expected, and there are no typos or formatting issues.
If the username is provided dynamically, verify that the mechanism for retrieving the username is functioning correctly.
Review the GithubAPIBot.py file to confirm that the username parameter is being handled appropriately in the __init__ method.

None of the unfollowing functions is working.

unless I am the one using it wrong...

How do I make the unfollow bot work -w- I am lost now,

I tried several ways including using -t and my GitHub name and revoking token and regenerating the token and update .env

Can you just type an example of how to use the unfollow bot using the -nf

cd follow-bot && python bot_unfollow.py -fo

cd follow-bot && python bot_unfollow.py -nf -smin 50

'USER' environment variable being used by the bot to store the GitHub username is being overridden by the operating system username on Linux distributions that commonly use this environment variable.

A solution is to rename this environment variable to 'GITHUB_USER', for example.

Describe the bug
I was testing the code for days, but I was curious why the sleep took so long so I change it into 20-30s now that I have all the list of the -t followers to follow, the code follows them all successfully, but it didn't do anything at all it gave me false flag in the terminal I was expecting following 647 users but I'm still in 149
.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to github-follow-bot
2. python3 bot_follow.py -t
3. Scroll down to terminal saying it: master - python3 bot_follow.py -t

Successful authentication.

Grabbing MiChaelinzo's followings.

Grabbing followers.

Starting to follow.

Finished following!

I cannot give out my here since it would violate privacy law.

4. See error

Expected behavior
To follow all the users from the -t
