@zaddyfi @apify The free monthly credits are genuinely useful for experimentation. Once creators or small teams start running consistent scrapes (especially social + media), the “keep the same code but run it where I want” option becomes pretty attractive.

[Crawlee Cloud @crawleecloud]

@codyschneider Highest-intent leads are usually the ones already engaging. Apify makes the collection part almost trivial. The hard part later is usually cost predictability and data ownership once it scales.

[Crawlee Cloud @crawleecloud]

@paolo_scales Solid signal-based approach. The people already commenting are warmer than any cold list. Once the volume grows, keeping those scraping runs and datasets on infrastructure you control starts mattering a lot.

[Crawlee Cloud @crawleecloud]

@codyschneider This is exactly why a lot of teams eventually want the data and runs on their own infra. Once you’re pulling thousands of rows regularly, the “own the database” part becomes the real unlock. Clean workflow.

[Crawlee Cloud @crawleecloud]

@the_osps Love seeing more open-source options in this space. The “record browsing actions → reusable robots” approach is interesting. For teams that already have Crawlee/Apify Actors, the migration cost is often the biggest friction point.

[Crawlee Cloud @crawleecloud]

@VivekIntel Looks like the repo was archived earlier this year (public archive now). Still interesting to see the approach — XPath + queue management + self-hosted stack. Curious what people are moving to for similar no-code / low-code self-hosted scraping setups these days.

[Crawlee Cloud @crawleecloud]

@Sauain @apify This is a solid program. Technical deep-dives on real migration patterns and production scraping setups are still under-served. Looking forward to seeing what people publish this round.

Self-host shouldn't mean "SSH and pray."

Crawlee Cloud: runs, logs, datasets, webhooks — operator console on your infra.

[Crawlee Cloud @crawleecloud]

Built Crawlee Cloud for months. Went public earlier this year.

Then quiet — heads-down making it hold under a real enterprise migration.

Platform stabilized. Posting again with real progress, not hype.

What would you need to trust a 100+ scraper self-host migration?

We're learning this live (68 of 130 on Crawlee Cloud).

Your Apify bill shouldn't decide how much you scrape.

Crawlee Cloud is a self-hosted, MIT-licensed Apify alternative — your integration run unchanged.

Now backed by @digitalocean's Open Source Credits Program 🎉

We're not "anti-Apify." We're drop-in compatible.

Keep the SDK you know. Run it on infrastructure you control. MIT — no lock-in.

#opensource #crawlee

[Crawlee Cloud @crawleecloud]

Fleet migration tip: don't rewrite Actors.

Point APIFY_API_BASE_URL at your Crawlee Cloud instance. Same Apify SDK. Same code.

Deploy path: https://t.co/7hu4h6njlD

#crawlee #selfhosted

[Mbarki Amine @mbarkiamine]

🚨 Apify having platform-wide timeouts today.

Our 17 scrapers on Crawlee Cloud? Still running. Zero impact.

That's the power of self-hosting:
✅ Your infra, your capacity
✅ No shared-platform bad days
✅ ~5x cheaper compute

Open source. Apify SDK compatible. Zero code changes to migrate.

Stop depending on someone else's uptime 👇

[Crawlee Cloud @crawleecloud]

68 of 130 scrapers migrated to Crawlee Cloud on a real enterprise fleet.

Platform stabilized. Heavy Playwright jobs first — those were the expensive ones. Migration ongoing.

Same SDK. Your infra.

[Crawlee Cloud @crawleecloud]

Same Apify SDK. Change one env var — point APIFY_API_BASE_URL at your box.

Actors keep working. Data stays on your infra.

Self-hosted, MIT, open source.

#webscraping #selfhosted

[Crawlee Cloud @crawleecloud]

Hosted scraping is fine — until data, credentials, and cost need to stay on infra you control.

Self-host is not "anti-cloud." It's choosing where the work runs.
