1 month ago Hello,
I understand the issue and it is a known one that motivated the 2.x rewrite.
As the 1.x version has cloudflare protection on all endpoints, it is necessary because it uses the beta endpoints (2023).
However that branch will be deprecated soon because beta uses the new and mobile endpoints (no cloudflare). I'm not aware about the issues on Vercel but for now, I recommend you use the new beta branch for your needs, because I'm focused on the 2.x versions.
If you however really need help regarding the 1.x version for your project, let me know, but I have to remind that 1.x can break eventually when cai pulls the plug on old endpoints.
I will look into the resources you've sent when I can. Thank you for your insight.
Cheers

This version of Chromium would work on serverless, but I would not have a way to specify it: https://github.com/Sparticuz/chromium?tab=readme-ov-file

Thanks for all your hard work on this library! The beta works great on local environments. :)
