What’s the best way to handle CAPTCHAs while scraping?
I slow down my requests if CAPTCHAs start appearing more frequently. By reducing the load on the server, you can avoid triggering CAPTCHAs in the first place.

What is the best way to avoid getting blocked while scraping websites?
Avoid common bot patterns, like repetitive requests to the same URLs. I add randomness to my request paths or focus on different sections of the site to appear less predictable.
