Wow, thanks for all the replies! Didn’t realize so many folks were dealing with smart proxy rotting ip too.
Gonna try Bright Data and Oxylabs based on your suggestions. Also, the header leak tip is gold—definitely checking that.
One more Q: anyone know if VPNs help at all, or just make it worse? Might test that next.
(Also, +1 on avoiding free proxies. Learned that the hard way lol.)
