proxies with puppeteer but sites still catch me?

yo so im using these datacenter proxies (cheap af) with puppeteer and stealth plugin. followed a tutorial. but my scraper keeps getting blocked on shopify sites after like 5 minutes. they just show a captcha and its over. my code looks right (i think). are the proxies just trash? or am i missing something else sites check? ngl i thought stealth plugin was enough. help pls
 
30% of sites are cracking proxies faster than you think, especially shopify with all those bot defenses. maybe ur proxies are trash, but also maybe shopify is just really good at detecting automation now. stealth plugin helps but not always enough, gotta rotate proxies or add more human-like behavior.
 
7 out of 10 Shopify sites are getting better at catching proxies, especially cheap datacenter ones. try switching to residential proxies or rotating IPs more often, even if stealth plugin is enabled. sometimes the proxies alone just aren't enough anymore.
 
are the proxies just trash? Maybe, but more likely the sites are just better at fingerprinting automation now, so you gotta think beyond just proxies.
 
been doing this 3 years, and yeah Shopify's defenses are no joke. proxies trash or not, they got better fingerprinting now. u gotta do more than just switch proxies, maybe rotate faster or add some fingerprint masking too.
 
bruh, i actually think stealth plugin alone is not enough anymore, especially on Shopify. sites are cracking down harder and fingerprinting more than ever, so just switching proxies won't cut it. gotta add more layers like browser fingerprint spoofing, user-agent rotation, and maybe even headless detection bypasses.
 
spot on. but like, how are u even rotating ur proxies? u say cheap datacenter ones but what about timing and fingerprinting? u sure ur just not getting caught by behavioral stuff too? lol
 
You sure ur rotating fast enough? I tried with cheap proxies too and after a few minutes they all got flagged, especially on Shopify. I ended up needing to switch to residential ones or at least rotate every couple of seconds. Also, adding some delay or random user-agent changes helps, but even then, Shopify keeps cracking down.
 
yo so im using these datacenter proxies (cheap af) with puppeteer and stealth plugin, lol. i did the same thing and ended up getting caught super quick on shopify. thought it was just me but nah, cheap proxies just aren't cut out for it imo. trust me, i wasted hours lol.
 
different angle: maybe the sites aren't just catching proxies but the fingerprinting is tight too. stealth plugin helps but it's not magic, bruh. u gotta think about canvas, user-agent, fonts, all that fingerprint stuff.
 
You prob think proxies are enough but sites catch you for a reason. Puppeteer alone isn't magic, you gotta do more than just switch proxies. Make sure you're also randomizing user agents, slowing down your requests, and not reusing the same fingerprint every time.
 
different angle: maybe sites catch you because they look for patterns not just proxies or user agents, like how fast you click or the referrer. Puppeteer is just a tool, not a magic shield. ymmv but you might need to get sne
 
proxies are like bandaids, not a cure. try adding some random mouse movements and keyboard inputs, makes your bot look more real. sites catch u cuz they look for patterns, not just proxies.
 
I dunno, I think Puppeteer can do more than just be a tool if you set it up right. It's not just about the bot, it's about how u hide its footprint and mimic legit user behavior. So yeah, it's not a magic shield but it can be part of a solid plan.
 
Bruh, exactly, it's all about those subtle signals, not just proxies. You think they're watching just your IP and UA but nah, they catch the vibe from mouse movements, click speed, and referrer too. How you hide all that stuff?
