Need Help Using Proxy with Scrapy: Best Practices and Common Pitfalls?

Yo! Using proxy with scrapy can be a nightmare, but here’s what I do:

I use Scrapy-Fake-UserAgent to randomize user-agents. It helps a lot with avoiding bans.

For proxies, I’ve had good results with Storm Proxies. They’re fast and reliable.

Also, don’t forget to set up proper error handling. Sometimes proxies fail, and you don’t want your scraper to crash because of it.

Hope this helps!
