What’s the best way to handle web scraping with PHP these days? or How can I improve my web scraping

Panther + Goutte is my go-to for web scraping php. Handles JS like a champ.

For avoiding blocks, I use a mix of:
- Residential proxies (BrightData)
- Randomized request intervals
- Full header spoofing (including Accept-Encoding)

CAPTCHAs? I outsource to Anti-Captcha. Worth every penny.
