  "selftext": "Hi everyone, I started getting into web scraping about 3–4 days ago. I already have some solid experience with Python, and my first scraping project was a public website. I managed to collect around 7,000 records and everything worked as expected. I’m curious whether this is considered a decent start for someone new to scraping, or if it’s fairly basic stuff.Also, I’d like to hear honest opinions: is web scraping still worth investing time in today (for projects, automation, or monetization), or is it becoming a waste of time due to market saturation and restrictions? Any real-world experiences or insights would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.",
