As a puppeteer user I've been reading about Playwright and it looks quite promising, thinking about making the switch...
Anyone here has some experience with Playwright? Is it less/more buggy? Is it better for botting?

I'm using nightmare.js over evrything else. Simple to use and highly customizable.

Choose Playwright if you need to use browsers other than Chrome/Chromium right now.
On the other hand, Playwright doesn't have some good plugins like in Puppeteer such as puppeteer-extra-plugin-stealth

What's your setup like? Would you recommend it for attempting google SERP clicks on a low keyword volume? Is there a way to generate basically an entirely new profile each time? Here was a total plan I had: somehow create a duplicable Windows/Mac/Linux VM that automatically connects to a unique residential proxy and launches my nightmare.js script with a unique fingerprint when launched, then shuts down. This would operate in a VPS or even on my home computer; it would automatically duplicate the VM, let it run the nightmare.js in the VM, then disconnect and shut down the VM; repeat the process at a randomized time to get true automation.

You might want to try it with other sites instead of playing on your money sites at first. It may give you a boost. Or you may get penalized for manipulating CTR if they figure it out.

my whole setup is based on the microservice pattern. That means I only have to scale what I rely on heavily, service-wise.

Sure, but if you're really good at producing decent stealthy bots there's a dickload of interesting stuff you could do instead of some shady blackhat seo trick with nearly zero benefit.
