Does BrightData rotating residential IP really help with avoiding blocks? or How reliable is BrightDa

OP here—thanks for all the tips! Definitely gonna try slowing down requests and adding some of those tools (ScrapeOps looks promising).

Quick update: I tested rotating IPs every 5 mins instead of 1, and it’s already way better. Still getting some blocks, but fewer.

Anyone got a sweet spot for rotation timing? Or is it just trial and error?

Also, mobile proxies sound interesting—anyone got a budget-friendly rec?
