Dude, wget scrape urls is a lifesaver but also a headache lol.
Here’s what I do:
- Use `--wait=10` to add a 10-second delay between requests. Keeps the server happy.
- For recursive downloads, I always set `-l` and `--no-parent` to avoid going too deep or outside the target directory.
- If you’re worried about getting blocked, try using Tor with wget. It’s a bit slower but super stealthy.
Also, check out HTTrack if you want a GUI alternative. It’s not as powerful as wget but way easier for beginners.
