Which is harder to detect: Puppeteer vs Selenium detection in web automation?

20 Replies, 1948 Views

Hey everyone,
So, I’ve been diving into web automation lately, and I keep hearing about puppeteer vs selenium detection. Which one’s harder to detect, honestly?

From what I’ve seen, Puppeteer seems a bit stealthier cuz it’s headless by default and uses Chrome DevTools Protocol. But Selenium? It’s been around forever, so sites have kinda gotten good at sniffing it out.

Still, I feel like it depends on how you set things up. Like, if you tweak Puppeteer’s settings, it can still get flagged, right? And with Selenium, if you use a good proxy or randomize user agents, maybe it’s not *that* easy to detect?

Anyone got real-world experience with this? Like, which one’s given you less headaches when it comes to puppeteer vs selenium detection? Would love to hear your thoughts!

Cheers!
