The secret ingredient is to use Playwright's `connect_over_cdp()` method to connect to an existing browser that is already stealthy. Playwright can then perform its usual actions without being detected by anti-bot services. Example set

Mix in some Python, PyAutoGUI, SeleniumBase, ThreadPoolExecutor, and then you get some serious multi-threaded CAPTCHA-bypass.

You can set `browser="firefox"`, but there's no stealth mode for it.

It's OK. No offense was taken. It almost looked like the conversation was expanding into a "Python vs Java" debate, but (thankfully) it did not. I've seen both worlds. I've seen advantages to both. I decided to stay

Thank you!

The biggest issue with going from a home machine to a server is that you may lose having a "residential IP address", which is something that you'll want to have in order to prevent automation from being blocked outright. Henc

The "Python vs Java" debate is probably one for a different Hacker News post. :)

SeleniumBase CDP Mode uses `DOM.scrollIntoViewIfNeeded` ( https://chromedevtools.github.io/devtools-protocol/tot/DOM/#... ), so it only scrolls when elements are offscreen, rather than always scrolling. This re

Patching chromedriver is a lot easier than patching the browser. Plus, if you're just using a regular Chrome browser for the automation, then there's nothing to patch. Automated CDP calls aren't detectable if they don't

There's actually a lot of examples being used for testing ( https://github.com/seleniumbase/SeleniumBase/tree/master/exa... ), which are run regularly (locally and in GitHub Actions). Plus, a lot of m

Call it "legacy code" if you'd like. That specific part is from a less common feature for setting options when running on a Selenium Grid. The new CDP Mode isn't compatible with The Grid (since CDP Mode makes direct CDP

That patches chromedriver, (which gets renamed to uc_driver), but patching by itself isn't enough to bypass bot-detection. SeleniumBase also sets specific Chrome options and modifies methods to use the Chrome Devtools Protocol.

With SeleniumBase, you can bypass CAPTCHAs with one line of code: `sb.uc_gui_click_captcha()`

That method came from code that I accepted in a PR from December 31, 2019: https://github.com/seleniumbase/SeleniumBase/pull/459 Not a true representation of most of the code today.

SeleniumBase modifies the webdriver so that it doesn't get detected when used alongside the CDP stealth mode and methods. It'll download chromedriver for you. Not sure what you mean by the multiple branches, as there's just t
