Know when web pages change! Stay on top of new information! Live your data-life pro-actively instead of re-actively, do not rely on manipulative social media for consuming important information.
Maybe you need to be notified the moment a government or company web page changes, or possibly you’re waiting for an item to go on sale.
This can be installed and run on a Raspberry Pi at home, or installed quickly as a Docker image.

The developer of changedetection.io is deleting questions and discussion on github and bans like it is reddit.
Especially when asked why changedetection.io only works with provider BrightData for proxies the dev is fast at deleting.
I am getting the impression this is a sales tool for bright data and that the dev is NOT OK.
Let me know if you know of ANYONE using proxies in changedetection that are NOT bright data.

Original question in april and the rest of the discussion is gone and the thread is locked.
Thanks for pointing this out. I use changedetection.io and Huginn - I’m going to see if I can consolidate my scraping into just Huginn instead.
once you’ve figured out how to do that…please make a post.
