What you give up either way
- Scale and reliability of a production scraping fleet (IP pools, rate-limit handling, retries)
- The product's claimed anonymous/managed operations and legal/terms handling
- Stripe-managed billing portal and consumer trust/brand
- Long-term historical indexing and unlimited tracking at scale
An open-source project doing the core job proves a replacement is possible. It does not prove it matches Last Followed, and it does not prove anyone has run it for a month. How we decide.
