## What it is
A Python web crawler for Sina Weibo (Chinese microblog) built on Scrapy, with three versions: a standalone spider, a distributed version using scrapy_redis, and an improved version with cookie pool maintenance. It handles login captcha solving via manual input or paid captcha services.

## Use cases
- scrape weibo posts at scale
- build a distributed weibo crawler
- collect sina weibo data for research
- crawl weibo user profiles
- maintain a cookie pool for weibo scraping

## When to choose
- you need to scrape Sina Weibo data in bulk
- you want a reference implementation of a distributed Scrapy-Redis crawler
- you're studying how cookie pools and dedup queues work in crawlers

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained, working crawler today - Weibo's anti-scraping has changed since 2017
- you want a project with a license or active support
- you're scraping platforms other than Weibo
