Yo! Managing a web scraping proxy pool is like herding cats sometimes lol.
I use ProxyMesh for rotating proxies, and it’s been pretty solid. They have a good mix of datacenter and residential IPs.
For monitoring, I just built a simple script to ping the proxies every hour and log the response times. If something’s off, I get an alert.
IP bans are tricky, but I’ve had some success with Oxylabs—they’ve got a huge pool, so it’s harder to get blocked.
