I've stopped scraping it for a while, sometimes only running the
scraper when I want to download a specific gallery number from nh. but
yes, before it, the scraper was running a bit aggressively for content
collecting purpose

I'll stop doing that, I actually enjoy reading nh online more than
downloading. Our scraping activity (on nh) didn't actually have a
strong intention, it was just for fun collecting data and happy doing
code.
