Dynamic content is the worst, right? I’ve been there. For web scraping in R, RSelenium is my go-to for JS-heavy pages. It’s a bit of a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, it’s super powerful.
Also, try `polite` package—it helps with rate-limiting and respecting robots.txt. It’s not perfect, but it’s better than nothing.
For avoiding blocks, I use a combo of random delays and rotating headers. Sometimes, though, you just gotta accept that some sites are gonna block you no matter what.
Hope that helps!
