Tip for Deploying Scrapers and Bots Without Headaches

One thing I wish I'd known earlier: always separate your core logic from the deployment stuff when building bots or scrapers. Makes it way easier to redeploy or swap out servers if you get blocked or the host starts raising eyebrows.

For anyone running projects that are high-traffic, use APIs a lot, or need to be stealthy, having a VPS provider that’s Tor and DMCA-friendly can save a ton of hassle. That’s partly why I set up OvO Hosting (https://ovobox.org)—it’s anonymous (no KYC), privacy-first, crypto payments only, and servers are spun up offshore in about 15 min.

Curious, what kind of challenges do you run into when deploying bots or automation workloads? Any horror stories with VPS providers cracking down?
