Description

I’m using PatchRight Node.js for my scrapers and it works well on all my targets. However, when I run the Docker container on a Windows PC with an x86_64 architecture it successfully retrieves the page. However, using my M3 Mac triggers the bot protections. I suspect this is due to the architecture. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is there a solution? I’d like to run my scraper in a Docker container on an ARM64 architecture device.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate if PatchRight's patches are architecture specific. Run the scraper in a Docker container with ARM64 emulation on an x86 machine and compare behavior. Check the Playwright source for architecture dependent code in browser launching.
