Oh man, the speed issue is REAL. I’ve been there. One thing that helped me was using explicit waits instead of implicit ones—sounds basic, but it cut down on those random timeouts.
Also, for CAPTCHAs, have you tried rotating proxies? Sites like Bright Data or Oxylabs offer residential proxies that can help avoid triggering those annoying checks.
And yeah, Playwright’s faster, but the learning curve’s steeper. If you’re deep into selenium scraping already, maybe stick with it and just optimize?
