Re:Mastering Web Scraping in Python: Crawling from Scratch on Wednesday August 11, 2021 @11:46AM (#28143477)
Python is indeed far from ideal for scraping in the modern web, but for only one reason: It can't execute javascript.

As a result, js generated content cannot be scraped, and python scrapers also get blocked very fast as they don't execute fingerprinting scripts.
