Yo, I feel you on the brightdata vs smartproxy for YouTube dilemma. I’ve been using Smartproxy for a while now, and it’s been decent for my needs. It’s not perfect, but for the price, it’s hard to beat. BrightData is definitely more robust, but unless you’re doing massive scraping, it might be overkill.
One thing I’d suggest is testing both with their free trials. That’s what I did, and it helped me decide.
