For big projects, I *always* go with Scrapy. It’s fast, scalable, and handles proxies & rotations like a champ.
BeautifulSoup + Requests is fine for small stuff, but if you’re scraping thousands of pages, you’ll hit limits fast.
Paid tools like Octoparse? Meh. Overpriced for what they do. Scrapy’s free and way more powerful if you’re willing to learn it.
Hidden gem? Check out `httpx` for async scraping—way faster than Requests!
