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

Hey everyone,
So, I’ve been diving into this whole Puppeteer vs Selenium detection thing lately, and honestly, it’s kinda confusing. Like, which one is actually harder to detect when you’re automating stuff?

From what I’ve read, Puppeteer seems to fly under the radar more often because it’s headless by default and doesn’t leave as many fingerprints. But Selenium? Man, it’s like waving a giant flag saying “HEY, I’M A BOT!” with all the browser properties it exposes.

Still, I’ve heard some sites are getting smarter and can catch Puppeteer too, especially if you don’t tweak the settings. So, is it really Puppeteer vs Selenium detection, or does it just come down to how well you configure either tool?

Would love to hear your thoughts or experiences on this. Maybe I’m missing something obvious here.

Cheers!
