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

29 Replies, 2184 Views

I’ve been automating stuff for a while, and Puppeteer is my go-to for stealth. Selenium is just too easy to detect unless you’re willing to put in a lot of effort.

For Puppeteer, the stealth plugin is a lifesaver. It hides a lot of the stuff that sites look for, like the `webdriver` flag. You can also randomize mouse movements and add delays to make it look more human.

Selenium is doable, but it’s a pain. You’ll need to mess with the browser profile and use tools like `undetected-chromedriver` to avoid detection.
