If you’re scraping social media or dynamic sites, Puppeteer is a must.
But for raw speed? `requests-html` is underrated. It’s like Requests but with JS support.
Just don’t forget proxies—otherwise, you’ll get banned in 5 mins flat.

For big projects, I mix tools: Scrapy for structure, Playwright for JS, and ProxiesAPI for, well, proxies.
Paid tools like Octoparse are *fine*, but you’ll outgrow them fast if you’re serious about scraping.
Hidden gem? `parsel`—it’s like BeautifulSoup but built for speed.
