      Much less beholden to arbitrary rules also. Way too many times companies will just up and lift their API access or push through restrictions. No ty, I’ll just access it myself then

        API starter kit

        • Outdated and unsupported and hasn’t been replaced yet but is the standard way to use the service.
        • Lots of authorization tokens.
        • The example in the docs doesn’t work (if there is one).
        • You have no idea where the online tutorial got the information because it doesn’t have links to resources and the docs have barely anything even though its giant.
        • Uses asynchronous programming to make it faster but its still much much slower then scrapping without asynchronous programming.
