"Is Puppeteer still the go-to for screen scraping Node.js?"

Hey folks! So I’ve been knee-deep in screen scraping Node.js projects lately, and Puppeteer’s been my ride-or-die. But I’m hearing murmurs about Playwright and Cheerio stealing the spotlight.

Is Puppeteer still the king for dynamic sites, or am I sleeping on better options?

Also, anyone else tired of dealing with headless browsers eating up RAM like it’s candy? 😅

"Any tips for avoiding blocks while screen scraping Node.js?"

Ugh, getting blocked while screen scraping Node.js is the WORST. Rotating proxies? User-agent spoofing? Delays?

What’s your secret sauce to fly under the radar?

I’ve had some luck with randomizing click patterns, but sites are getting smarter.

Share your hacks before I lose my mind (and my IPs)! 🚀
