I leave it running in the background and after some downloads it simply closes (it's far from having downloaded everything). I'm using Windows 11 and set it to run as admin (without admin it also would close after a bit)

Managed to screenshot the error before it closed the program.

You're being rate limited by the fansly API. After a dozen of requests they eventually just forcefully close the connection.

Most likely that rate limit was newly introduced, might've to update fansly scraper to counter that soon.

Maybe try using a VPN and see if that helps

Will try a VPN then, thanks for the quick response.

If that doesn't help you can also just continue the download from the point it shutdowned at, by setting update_recent_download to True

Hey sorry to bother you one more time, but I have a question, how much internet download speed do you have?
You can test it here: https://www.speedtest.net/

And do you maybe know if you have a SSD or HDD drive?

Also is this happening for you, everytime you're not using the VPN?

Do you have python set up and would you mind helping me debugging fansly scraper and possibly fix this rate limiting issue, based on your feedback?

Can you try the new python version of fansly scraper and let me know if my changes:

are usefull at all!
