You can use the "browserless" docker service which contains a headless chrome browser in a docker container. It also supports puppeteer and playwright connect api. Works flawless! I use it in combination with n8n. All on a raspberry pi4b (yes, I got one recently)

A lot of websites can detect the IPs from this and block it, basically almostly like a CAPTCHA.

I had other needs like Postgres, etc.

Scraping data is one thing, actually doing anything with it is another. I quickly hit the limits of a $50 RaspberryPi 4 or whatever they're going for on Amazon these days with the gouging, etc.
