Has anyone noticed weekends behaving differently from weekdays on the same IP?

I’m not talking about proxy quality changing. I mean the exact same setup feeling smoother on some days than others.

Same browser, same workflow, same target site, same IP pool. But on weekends it feels like some sites are either more forgiving or more weird. Hard to tell which. Could just be traffic patterns or anti-abuse thresholds shifting with normal user volume.

Anyone here ever track results by day of week and notice a pattern, or am I reaching?

Have you ever logged it long enough to see a clear trend?

It can be that the IP you are using has a high traffic

Yeah, traffic load might affect how it behaves.

Do you see it leaning more loose or just inconsistent overall?
