This has happened a couple times now. If I go to the creator page with a browser, the next attempt to scrape and download works.

It's not consistent across profiles. Not that I can tell anyway.

Start a download and get the logs below.

Getting consistently blocked on Coomerfans now.

Even if I go to the creator page (ms edge) and go through the browser check before I start the downloader, I get "no more posts found"

I use a proxy to proton vpn services. I've tried jumping to 4 different countries. It could be the downloader getting caught or the vpn service. The browser does work through the vpn. I'm going to avoid any downloading for a couple days and see if anything resets on their bot protection.

I realize this will be a newish implementation. I'm willing to test beta versions when you get to them.

Thank you.

Waited until today to try the downloader again. Worked first time via vpn. I'll update if it changes.
