honestly weird situation, been testing a datacenter subnet from this budget provider that's like $15 a month. I was fully expecting blocks on the social media stuff i was trying but i got consistent sessions for almost a week. I know everyone says they're instantly detectable and i still think thats true for heavy targets like amazon or shopify but maybe not all sites have the same level of detection now? Or my setup is just dumb luck. My profile wasn't even that sophisticated, basic antidetect browser with some canvas noise. Anyone else had datacenters work past like the first 10 requests recently? Looking for recommendations on providers that might have cleaner ip ranges, not the super oversold ones.
 
Always check if the provider offers IP whitelisting or rotating proxies with clean ranges, that can really boost your success rate. I've used a service called Storm Proxies, legit cheap and they've been pretty stable for non-heavy targets. ymmv tho, some providers have better pools than others.
 
bruh are u sure that just a basic antidetect and canvas noise can last that long? seems kinda sus to me. u sure the sites weren't just not paying attention?
 
Haha, yeah I was thinking the same. Sometimes I feel like some sites just let stuff slide if it doesn't look too shady. Or maybe they don't have the resources to check every request closely. Still, kinda surprised it worked that long.
 
Last month i tried some datacenter proxies from a budget provider too and actually got away with more than i expected but I gotta ask, how long do u think this kinda luck lasts? Like, do you really think some sites aren't actively catching on, or maybe they just not hitting the right detection points yet?
 
I don't think I'd trust them long term, lol. I tried datacenter proxies once and got flagged on like my third run. Cheap ain't always good when it comes to proxies, especially for serious stuff. Stay safe out there!
 
50% of the time, datacenter proxies work fine for quick tasks but get flagged easy if you push too hard. my experience says they can be okay for small scale stuff but if you wanna go long term or higher volume, residentials are safer. safety first, but sometimes cheap wins for short runs.
 
Haha, funny you mention that, I actually had a different experience. I've used datacenter proxies for a while now and they've held up fine for me, no flags yet. ymmv though, I guess it depends on what you're doing and how often.
 
Bruh, same here. I tried datacenter proxies once and thought I was good till I got flagged after a few hours. Cheap might work for quick stuff but long term, nah. ymmv tho, sometimes luck is on your side.
 
different angle: if you wanna go more reliable without breaking the bank, check out residential proxies from services like oxylabs or bright data, they stay under the radar longer even tho they're pricier.
 
you think theyll keep working or you worried they might get flagged? tbh, ive seen both sides but for cheap quick tasks, some peeps swear by em. ymmv always, just don't get too comfy.
 
lol yeah I agree, I've used datacenter proxies for like 3 months and got away with it most of the time but then suddenly boom, flagged. I read some stats that like 70% of datacenter proxies get detected after a week if you're doing a lot. maybe luck or just timing but yeah, not always reliable long term.
 
your experiences guys, always interesting how different setups can yield different results. Yeah, datacenter proxies can work for small quick tasks but not for anything serious long term. If you're planning to scale or need stability, residential proxies might be better, even if they cost more.
