I’ve used both brightdata vs smartproxy for YouTube, and here’s my take: BrightData is more reliable, but Smartproxy is way more budget-friendly. If you’re just starting out, I’d go with Smartproxy and see how it works for you.
Also, don’t forget to use a good proxy manager to handle IP rotation. It’s a lifesaver.
